Nain and Amit Bijlwan Department of Agrometeorology Govind Ballabh Pant University of Agriculture and Technology Pantnagar Uttarakhand India Corresponding author ABSTRACT Water and nitrogen are two primary limiting factors for wheat yield. In consonance with Keywords this field experiment was conducted at Norman Ernest Borlaug Crop Research Centre in Wheat CSM- Pantnagar Uttarakhand during Rabi season of 2017-18 to analyze the performance of CROPSIM-CERES- CSM-CROPSIM-CERES-wheat model for wheat cultivar PBW-502 grown under Wheat model different stress conditions characterized by inducing different water and nitrogen levels. 27 Abiotic stress treatment combinations consisted of 3 DOS 12 th December 22nd December and 02nd Genetic January 3 irrigation levels 100 irrigations 75 irrigations and 50 irrigations and 3 coefficients Yield nitrogen levels 100 75 and 50 of recommended nitrogen doses laid in a Factorial gap RBD with 3 replications. The results revealed good agreement between simulated and measured data of crop phenology LAI and grain yield. The simulated and observed yield Article Info ranged between to t ha and to t ha respectively. RMSE was found to be with R2 value of which is found significant. The model performance was Accepted validated with the experimental dataset of year 2007-2008 by using genetic coefficients 04 October 2020 obtained during calibration process. Degree of stress in wheat crop was analyzed in terms Available Online of yield gap which was found higher 68. 28 under .
