Adapting the CROPGRO model to simulate growth and production of Brassica carinata, a bio-fuel crop

Carinata (Brassica carinata) is an oilseed crop which, because of its non-edible oil composition and favorable fatty acid profile, is proposed as a “green” sustainable aviation fuel. It can be grown as a winter crop in the southeastern USA or as a summer annual crop in northern latitudes. No crop mo...
