The AquaCrop model
FAO (the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations) launched in 2009 the dynamic crop growth model “AquaCrop” to predict yield response to water of herbaceous crops.

In 2022 the model was expanded to simulate perennial herbaceous forage crops and scaled up for regional applications.
