"The national ARS Wheat Yeild project was formally initiated in October 1976 with objective of developing a concise description of plant response to its environment which would include capability for yeild prediction. This document describes some activities and products of the of the ARS Wheat Yeild Group. The products presented here include brief descriptions of (a) project development, (b) data sets developed by measuring soil, plant and climate parameters through complete growth cycles of winter wheat and spring wheat at several locations and years in the Great Plains and Pacific Northwest, (c) dynamic simulation models of wheat growth and yield, and (d) methods for using remotely sensed data to assess plant conditions, provide early warnings of poor (abnormal) growing conditions, and provide surrogate inputs to the plant growth models"--P.

Agriculture increasingly faces the challenge of balancing its multiple functions in a sustainable way. Integrated assessment and modelling (IAM) can provide insight into the potential impacts of policy changes. However, concepts to address the wide range of issues and functions typical for agriculture are still scarce. Environmental and Agricultural Modelling reviews and presents our current understanding of integrated and working tools to assess and compute, ex-ante, alternative agricultural and environmental policy options, allowing: 1. Analysis at the full range of scales (farm to European Union and global) whilst focusing on the most important issues emerging at each scale; 2. Analysis of the environmental, economic and social contributions of agricultural systems towards sustainable rural development and rural viability; 3. Analysis of a broad range of issues and agents of change, such as climate change, environmental policies, rural development options, effects of an enlarging EU, international competition, and effects on developing countries.

Water stress and heat stress are considered to be two primary factors that limit crop production in many parts of the world. Global warming appears to be increasing the water requirements of plants. Understanding the impact of water deficit on plant physiological processes and efficient water management are of great concern in maintaining food production to meet ever increasing world food demand. The book addresses various climatic soil and plant factors that contribute to the water use efficiency in plants subjected to water stress. It covers all issues related to soil, plant and climatic factors that contribute to the crop responses to water stress. The books advances the knowledge in improving and sustaining crop yields in ever increasing unpredictable climatic fluctuations This book uses crop simulation models for response of crops to limited water under various management and climatic conditions.
