AquaCrop is a crop water productivity model developed by FAO to improve water productivity in rainfed and irrigated fields. It simulates yield response to water of herbaceous crops and is particularly suited to address conditions where water is a key limiting factor in crop production. AquaCrop was developed in 2009 and since then it has been used worldwide in different agro-ecological conditions.
