| Abstract:
This work presents a user-friendly, Internet-based, version of the NiCoLet lettuce model that includes most of the versions currently available. The potential use of this simulation tool is as a decision-support aid for growers and extension agents, as well as for use in teaching students crop simulation modelling. The model, which was previously limited to a handful of researchers, is made available to all Internet users using the Matlab Webserver toolbox. Matlab Webserver is a promising method for disseminating powerful decision-support tools. | |
