The program presents a table that includes fertilizer N added , N taken up by crop,
N leached below 1.8m, and final Nitrate –N in soil (Kg/ha) and grain yield of
crop (Kg/ha) for that run
DSSAT was designed to allow users to :
 Input, organize and store data on crop, soil and weather “data
base”·
 Retrieve, analyze and display data.
 Calibrate and evaluate crop growth models.
 Evaluate different management practices and compare simulation
results with their own measured results to give them confidence
that models work adequately.
 DSSAT allow users to simulate option for crop management over
a number of years to assess the risks associated with each option.
 Create different management strategies and the simulated
performance indicators that can be analyzed.
Applications of Crop Models
 Based on understanding of plants, soil, weather and
management interactions
 Predict crop growth, yield, timing (Outputs)
 Optimize Management using Climate Predictions
 Diagnose Yield Gaps, Actual vs. Potential
 Optimize Irrigation Management
 Greenhouse Climate Control
 Quantify Pest Damage Effects on Production
 Precision Farming
 Climate Change Effects on Crop Production
 Can be used to perform “what-if” experiments on the computer
to optimize management
Daily Increase in Dry Matter Growth:
Photosynthesis and Respiration
Daily Growth = CVF * Gross Photosynthesis - Respiration
dW/dt = CVF * ((30/44) * A - MC * W)
dW/dt = Plant Growth Rate, g m-2 s -1
CVF = Conversion Efficiency, g tissue (g glucose)-1
30/44 = Converts CO2 into Glucose, g glucose (g CO2 )-1
A = Gross Photosynthesis, g [CO2] m-2 s -1
MC = Maintenance Respiration Coefficient, s -1
W = Plant Tissue Mass, g m-2
or
Updating Growth
Masst+1 = Masst + Growtht - Abortt
Conversion Factor (CVF)
1/CVF= fleaf/0.68 + fstem/0.66 + froot/0.68 + fstorage /Co
CVF= Conversion factor (g product g-1glucose)
f = Fraction of each organ in the increase in total dry matter (f=1)
Co = Conversion factor of storage organ (g product g-1glucose)
For example, Co is 0.67 for maize, 0.78 for potato, 0.46 for
soybean, and 0.40 for peanut.

-Latitude and longitude of the weather station, .
-Daily values of incoming solar radiation (MJ/m²-day),
-Maximum and minimum air temperature (°C), and
-Rainfall (mm).
COEFF DEFINITIONS
VAR# Identification code or number for a specific cultivar
VAR-NAME Name of cultivar
ECO# Ecotype code or this cultivar, points to the Ecotype in the
ECO file (currently not used).
P1 Thermal time from seedling emergence to the end of the juvenile phase (expressed in degree days above a
base temperature of 8ّ C(during which the plant is not responsive to changes in photoperiod.
P2 Extent to which development (expressed as days) is delayed for each hour increase in photoperiod above the
longest photoperiod at which development proceeds at a maximum rate (which is considered to be 12.5
hours).

Vegetative Development is mainly affected by Temperature such as appearance
of leaves on main stem)
Reproductive Development is affected by temperature and daylength (such as
duration of seed growth phase)
Sensitivity to stresses varies considerably with stage of growth
Crop growth in simulation modeling usually refers to the accumulation of
biomass with time and its partitioning different organs.
Time
Adapting the DSSAT to our conditions we use the
following procedures
Conduct field experiments to collect minimum data set required to running
and evaluating crop model under Egypt condition.
Enter other input soil data for the region and historical weather data for sites in
the region(not start calibration of crop parameters before checking the
quality of weather data).
Run the model to evaluate the ability of model to predict
Modify model to evaluation shows that it does not reach the level of precision
required.
Conduct sensitivity analysis on the crop models to evaluate the modal responses
to alternative practices using variances, water use, season length, nitrogen
uptake, net profit and other responses.
Provide results and recommendations for decision-making .
Output can be printed or graphically displayed for conducting sensitivity
analysis.
