Potato is the fourth major staple food in the world and is still
rapidly gaining importance, especially in the tropics. In May, 1994
the second international potato modelling conference was held in
Wageningen, the Netherlands, as a summerschool of the C. T. de Wit
Graduate School. The conference was sponsored by DLO, SCRI, SSCR, W
AU and the LEB-Fund. Over 80 scientists participated, coming from
16 countries. Of each crop physiological and modelling subject, a
leading scientist was requested to write a review of the most
recent developments in his or her field. The reviews, with
highlights from the authors' own work, are such that the
physiological work described is of interest to the modeller and the
modelling work to the crop physiologist. Applications of the
quantitative approach are also reviewed in the concluding chapters
that deal with decision support systems, breeding and
agro-ecological zoning. An outstanding point of this book is that
both the crop ecology and the modelling of a broad range of biotic
and abiotic factors are treated by scientists representing groups
which are specialized in the subject. The two related disciplines
met during the conference and thus wrote the chapters with each
other's interest in mind. The book highlights the limitations for
potato growth and development from the viewpoints of both the crop
physiologist and the crop-systems analyst.
