DSSAT 2020 International Training Program

[Gerrit Hoogenboom]

The DSSAT Foundation, in collaboration with the University of Florida
and the International Fertilizer Development Center, will host an
international training program entitled DSSAT 2020 - "Assessing Crop
Production, Nutrient Management, Climatic Risk and Environmental
Sustainability with Simulation Models" from May 18 through May 23, 2020
at the University of Georgia Campus in Griffin, Georgia, USA. The
overall goal of the workshop is to familiarize the workshop participants
with the Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT
v4.7); the Cropping System Model (CSM) for the simulation of crop growth
and yield, soil and plant water, nutrient, and carbon dynamics; and the
application of models to real world problems, such as crop and resource
management, climate change and climate variability, carbon
sequestration, food security, biofuels, and environmental sustainability.
