Simulating the response of maize to nitrogen fertilizer in semiarid Zimbabwe
(CIMMYT, 2000)
Crop yield responses to inorganic fertilizers are variable under low and erratic rainfall characteristic of the semiarid tropics. Risks are especially high on the infertile granitic sands in many smallholder communal areas ...

Exploring farmer options for maize production strategies via scenario analysis using the APSIM model-an example of the approach
(CIMMYT, 2000)
This report summarizes a workshop in which the APSIM (Agricultural Production Systems Simulator) farming systems model was applied to the analysis of management options critical to maize production in Zimbabwe. The modeling ...
