Abstract

The study aimed response of CERES-wheat and CROPGRO-urd model for tarai region of Uttarakhand. Field experiments were conducted at N. E. Borlaug, Crop Research Centre, G. B. Pant University of Agriculture and Technology, Pantnagar, Uttarakhand during rabi and kharif seasons 2007 and 2008. CERES-wheat and CROPGRO-urd models version v 4.5 were used in this study. Cultivar specific genotypic coefficients were derived for wheat and urd during calibration. Model validation based on several independent sets of growth and yield data, including different nitrogen and irrigation levels. For all parameters t-test was found non-significant (‘t’ calculated values were smaller than t tabulated values at 5% level of significance), indicating that there were least differences between observed and predicted values. The result obtained with the model demonstrated satisfactorily prediction of phenology, growth and yield and thus it can be used for the prediction of wheat and urd growth as well as yield in this region
