We are pleased to announce the release of the
CSM-CROPGRO-Perennial-Forage model in DSSAT Version 4.7, complete with
species adaptations and data files for three perennial forages:
Brachiaria brizantha Stapf cv. Marandu, ‘Tifton 85’ bermudagrass
(Cynodon spp.), and alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) cv. Aragón.
The CROPGRO Perennial Forage Model (CROPGRO-PFM) was developed from the
annual crop version of CROPGRO by Rymph (2004) in order to allow
simulations with periodic partial to complete defoliation and subsequent
regrowth using newly added state variables for storage of carbohydrate
and nitrogen reserves in a new storage tissue type (stolon, rhizome,
crown, taproot), along with rules for use and re-fill of those reserves
for re-growth even after complete defoliation or surface winter-kill. In
2017, the CROPGRO-PFM was brought into the Cropping System Model code
and the DSSAT Version 4.7 release, with species parameterization and
data files for Brachiaria brizantha Stapf cv. Marandu and ‘Tifton 85’
bermudagrass (Cynodon spp.) from Pequeno et al. (2017), and alfalfa
(Medicago sativa L.) cv. Aragón dormancy group 7 (Malik et al., 2018).

If you are interested in adding another perennial forage crop to DSSAT,
please contact Professor Ken Boote.
