Shading from solar panels over a field changes how the crop underneath grows, and that is hard to predict. This is a slimmed down Python version of an established crop model, set up for panel shading questions too.

MoBPS: Modular Breeding Program Simulator

University of Göttingen and partners
Models, data & tools
Planning a breeding programme means guessing which crossing plan pays off before you commit years of field work. This is a simulator you run in the R language, letting you compare the genetic and cost outcomes of different programme designs.
