Obiettivi formativi
Students will learn about the main structure of cropping system models and about how to apply them to case studies on intensive cropping systems.- Oggetto:
Risultati dell'apprendimento attesi
At the end of the teaching unit, the student will be able to describe the interaction between the different components of the agro-ecosystem (soil-plant-climate). They will be also able to critically apply a simulation model to a real situation.- Oggetto:
