Abstract

This paper describes a simple microcomputer simulation model that calculates changes in the vertical distribution of water beneath a crop from weather, plant, and soil physical data. Simulated patterns of water extraction by soybeans in western Iowa agreed well with measured patterns. The model requires only about 10K of memory, so the simulation can be adapted readily to form part of a more complex model.
