Project Title

Ecophysiology, Dynamics and Bulking Modeling of Cut and Peel Carrots

Goals and Objectives

The long term goal of this project is to develop Harvest Decision Models for carrots. The short term objectives are to
i) understand the root bulking dynamics as influenced by seeding rates, seeding dates and harvesting dates;
ii) identify the link between root bulking and weather parameters;
iii) elucidate the ecophysiological changes;
iv) model root bulking.
