Aymen Frija. (20/11/2018). Report on PhD training on “Modelling bioeconomic diversity of wheat-based systems: Typology analysis and soil-crop simulations using APSIM”.
The objective of this training is to reflect on the wide diversity of wheat-based systems in Tunisia and North Africa. It also aims at providing a set of tools to analyze this diversity as well as to understand yield gaps of wheat under different agro-ecologies and the different trade-offs related to closing this gap. Particularly, the trainees will acquire skills related to the modelling of soil-water management to optimize the rainfall water use and water productivity. The trainees will also use the APSIM crop simulation model to be able to simulate different cropping systems scenarios that can help for improving wheat yields and assess their related trade-offs.
