Research focus

My research focuses on the assessment of adaptation strategies in an agriculture system under climate change scenarios. To conduct this, I use the EPIC model, which is a process-based crop model, and he utilized climate scenarios that are RCP 2.6, 4.5, and 8.5 splits in two future periods: near future (2035-2065) and distant future (2070-2100). Some of the tested management strategies are new cultivars, several planting and harvesting schedules, and irrigation amounts
