1. Resource Description

   "DSSAT (pronounced "dee'-sat") is microcomputer software program combining crop, soil, and weather data bases and programs to manage them, with crop models and application programs, to simulate multi-year outcomes of crop management strategies. DSSAT also provides for evaluation of the crop models; thus allowing users to compare simulated outcomes with observed results from field experiments or other measurements and observations. Crop model evaluation is accomplished by inputting the user's minimum data set, running the model, and comparing outputs with observed data. By simulating probable outcomes of crop management strategies, DSSAT offers users information with which to rapidly appraise new crops, products, and practives for adoption. DSSAT 4.0.2.0 for Windows is available."
