ORYZA2000 is a crop modeling tool used to to simulate the growth, development, and water balance of lowland rice under conditions of potential production and water and/or nitrogen limitations.
ORYZA, or ORYZA version 3.0 (ORYZA v3), evolved from the earlier versions of ORYZA2000 v2.13, v2.12, v2 and v1, which are the integrated successors of ORYZA1 (Kropff et al., 1994), ORYZA_W (Wopereis et al., 1996) and ORYZA_N (Drenth et al., 1994).
For more details on the modules and development of the ORYZA model, please read the Release Notes.
ORYZA is distributed free of charge and can be downloaded HERE.
The ORYZA accepts 6 input data files, each with a specific file format:
Soil data file (optional: needed only for water-limited simulation)
Rerun file (optional)
