Predicting yields using crop simulation models and gridded weather data in India

We find that gridded weather datasets vary in their representation of historic spatial and temporal temperature and precipitation patterns, creating large uncertainties in estimated crop yield responses to growing season weather. This highlights the need to consider input data uncertainty in applyin...
