Efforts are under way in the agricultural research for development community to employ crop growth simulation models for the ex"=ante assessment of the impacts of agricultural technologies, in particular improved crop varieties. The approach, dubbed ``virtual crop modelling'', consists in the man...

Virtual crop modeling for technology impact assessment - lessons from a potato crop growth model
Increasing use of regionally and globally oriented impacts studies, coordinated across international modelling groups, promises to bring about a new era in climate impacts research. Coordinated cycles of model improvement and projection are needed to make the most of this potential.

Virtual crop modeling is the representation of future genetic improvements from plant breeding in crop growth simulation models through changes in genetic coefficients or other crop model parameters with the objective of analyzing ex-ante the impacts of improved traits on crop yields and assistin...

As climate changes, temperatures will play an increasing role in determining crop yield. Both climate model error and lack of constrained physiological thresholds limit the predictability of yield. We used a perturbed-parameter climate model ensemble with two methods of bias-correction as input t...
