CropSyst is a long‑term, multi‑crop crop simulator that runs on a daily time step. It is being developed by a team in Washington State University’s Department of Biological Systems Engineering. The model helps researchers study how farming practices affect crop production and budgeting. It has parameters for many crops, including potatoes, lentils, tea, and grapes. Management options you can test include rotations, irrigation, fertilization, and tillage. CropSyst is widely used in research around the world, including the United States, Italy, and the United Kingdom, in projects such as the Land Allocation Decision Support System.
