What is this book for?

This book is a supplementary material for my master studying on the Agricultural Production Systems sIMulator next generation (APSIMX).

  • Why a book?
  1. I want to document the rational about the critical decision I made along the way. At least in a code format so that I may recall in the future.
  2. Looks nice and easy to share with others.
  3. Github is free to host it.
  • About the masters project

The project aims to understand Lucerne or Alfalfa performance under water deficit conditions in New Zealand and seek alternative ways for parameterising the APSIMx-Lucerne model.

  • About me

I’m a Data Scientist work in a reseach insititute called Plant and Food Research in New Zealand. I am also doing my master thesis at Lincoln University as a part-time student. The research topic I proposed covers three different subjects: plant, soil and data science.
