Most of the fields surveyed in Oman and UK were found to have at least one disease. The incidence of wheat diseases between 20 in two different agro-ecological zones, UK and Oman were compared. The overall aim of this project is to model disease impact on wheat for improved food security in two different agro-ecological zones. Modification of APSIM to incorporate epidemiological disease model for crop growth and yield under different disease intensities has few attempts in the UK or elsewhere. The Agricultural Production Systems Simulator (APSIM) is a software tool that enables sub-models to be incorporated for simulation of production in diverse agricultural systems. Crop simulation models have been validated as an important tool for the development of more resilient agricultural systems and improved decision making for growers. Climate change can alter pest and pathogen populations as well as pathogen complexes that pose an enormous risk to crop yields and future food security. ![]() ![]() Global crop production is affected by seasonal and climatic variations in temperature, rainfall patterns or intensity and the occurrence of abiotic and biotic stresses. ![]() Requires a PDF viewer such as GSview, Xpdf or Adobe Acrobat Reader
