Crop modelling has played an important role in formulating agricultural policies and measures to reduce yield losses. In this study, an effort was made to evaluate the SWAP (Soil Water Atmosphere Plant) model to assess its capability to simulate the salt dynamics and yield of three salt tolerant...

Crop growth simulation models of varying complexity have been developed for predicting the effects of soil, water and nutrients on grain and biomass yields and water productivity of different crops. These models are calibrated and validated for a given region using the data generated from field...

India's population is around 1.17 billion. At the end of 2009, the total number of mobile users in India was more than 500 million. As the number of mobile phone users is increasing, the purchase of products and usage of various services on mobile phones and other mobile devices are also...

Development of accurate surface runoff estimation techniques from ungauged watersheds is relevant in Indian condition due to the non-availability of hydrologic gauging stations in majority of watersheds. Besides this, the high budgetary requirements for installation of gauging stations are...

There is a need to characterize the water stress in wheat using suitable indices, which will help us to find out the water stress sensitive period for efficient use of irrigation water. Recently indices based on canopy spectral reflectance, which are non destructive, fast and reliable, are being...
