Estimating crop model parameters for simulating soybean production in Iran conditions☆

Crop modelling has the potential to contribute to food security. In this study, to provide a simple model for estimating the soybean potential yield and phenological stages in Iran, a simulation model (SSM_iCrop2) was parameterized and tested. This model estimates the soybean phenological stages and...

description Crop modelling has the potential to contribute to food security. In this study, to provide a simple model for estimating the soybean potential yield and phenological stages in Iran, a simulation model (SSM_iCrop2) was parameterized and tested. This model estimates the soybean phenological stages and potential yield based on the weather data (minimum and maximum temperature, solar radiation and rainfall) using the phenological models such as leaf area development, mass production and partitioning and soil water balance. Regarding the model parametrization, the two maturities groups of 3 and 5 with the temperature unit of 2000 and 2400 growth degrees day (GDD) were chosen. The model evaluation results indicated that the soybean yield ranged between 1.9 and 4.8 with the average of 3.5 t.ha−1, while the range of simulated yield changes between 1.8 and 4.7 with the average of 3.7 t.ha−1. Comparing the observed yield to the simulated yield, values of r, CV and RMSE were obtained 0.84, 13%, 0.5 t.ha−1 which indicates the high accuracy of the model. All of these results indicated that the estimated model parameters are high accuracy for use in the simulation of soybean yield at the country level.
