InfoCrop V2.1
InfoCrop V2.1
InfoCrop v2.1 simulates growth, development and yield of 12 crop (rice, wheat, maize, sorghum, pearl millet, soybean, mustard, groundnut, chickpea, pigeon pea, potato and cotton) varieties under varying climate (daily weather), soil and agronomic management (sowing time, organic matter, irrigation, nitrogen and pest). Outputs include daily growth, dry matter production and partitioning, yield, nitrogen uptake, partition; soil carbon, nitrogen and water balance; GHG emissions, losses due to pests, etc
IKSHU Cane Model
IKSHU Cane Model
IKSHU Model Beta v1.0: Simulates sugarcane varieties’ growth, development, cane and sugar yield under varying soils, climate and management. Inputs include daily weather, soil and varietal characteristics and management details. Useful for sugarcane management and market decisions
COCOSim
COCOSim
COCOSim is a process based dynamic model to simulate coconut varieties’ growth, development, nut and oil yield under varying soils, climate and management. Inputs include daily weather, soil, variety and management details. Outputs include monthly and yearly nut, oil and biomass yield, carbon storage and sequestration in coconut plantations. Useful for coconut plantation management and market decisions.
InfoCrop Spatial Analysis model
InfoCrop Spatial Analysis model
InfoCrop Spatial Analysis model: Simulates spatial scale growth, development and yield of 12 crops as in InfoCrop. Integrates geospatial inputs—such as crop variety, soil, climate, and management practices—to simulate crop growth, productivity, and resource use, and to analyze spatial variability across locations using GIS-based spatial analysis.
Spinach Simulation Model
Spinach Simulation Model
Spinach simulation model is a process based dynamic model for spinach (palak) varieties’ growth, development, and leaf yield (at user defined harvest dates) under varying soils, climate and management. Useful for spinach (palak) crop management and yield estimation at multiple harvests.
Vignarad Sim
Vignarad Sim
Vignarad Sim is a process based dynamic model for green gram varieties’ growth, development, and seed yield under varying soils, climate and management. Useful for green gram crop management.
CauliSim Simulation Model
CauliSim Simulation Model
CauliSim is a process based dynamic model for cauliflower varieties’ growth, development, and curd yield under varying soils, climate and management. Useful for cauliflower crop management.
