Yield Prophet - how did it perform in 2003? locations
Aims

To discuss Yield Prophet - how did it perform in 2003?

Key messages
  • APSIM, as a crop simulation model, can accurately estimate actual crop yield.
  • The Yield Prophet builds on output tools based on APSIM simulations.
  • Inputs returns that can be modelled to build a likely profit profile based on probability functions.
  • Climate risk (hence production risk) can be modelled to project forward the likely seasonal outcome.
