Other claims from this paper (2)
- Method / resource The SSM-Legumes based lentil model agreed with observed days to flowering or maturity and yield, showing it predicts lentil growth and yield robustly.
- Method / resource Adding a crop survival submodel for very low soil water content gave more realistic predictions of lentil growth and yield.
