Abstract: Crop modelling in Thailand presents challenges to both
farmers and researchers. Farmers want to increase production,
reduce costs, and remain profitable under variable climate and
economic conditions. Researchers want to match soils, climates,
and crop growth and give sound management advice.
PLANTGRO - a generic system for predicting growth of plants
was used to predict the performance of a new variety of banana
(Kasetsart 2) grown in four different environments in Thailand.
