Model Intercomparison

Wheat

The goals of the AgMIP wheat pilot team are to compare and improve wheat models in order to simulate better the impact of climate change as well as to explore adaptation options for improving both agricultural sustainability and global food security ... Read More

Bioenergy

Bioenergy-crop models will be incorporated into the AgMIP suite of assessment and MIP exercises through the development of new field-scale crop model improvement pilot projects and through inclusion in the Global Gridded Crop Model Intercomparison ... Read More

Rice

The AgMIP rice team aims to intercompare and improve rice crop models to simulate impacts, adaptation and mitigation measures under climate change. Four major pillars to identify problems in the current modeling ... Read More

Global Economics

From the stakeholder “pull’’ perspective, there is need to advance understanding of climate change effects vs. mitigation effects, food security and health implications. From the scientists "push" perspective, there is need to advance ... Read More

Regional Economics

The Regional Economics Team’s goal is to establish a methodological and procedural foundation for the systematic comparison and improvement of regional land use, production and trade models used for analysis of climate change impact, as well as ... Read More

Grasslands

The aim of the grassland group is to intercompare and further develop a range of models to be applied internationally, especially for climate change impact projections. The initial activities of the Livestock & Grasslands group were discussed during past AgMIP ... Read More

AgMIP Gridded Crop Model Initiative (AgGRID) - GGCMI

The GGCMI Initiative brings together a diverse international community of crop modelers for climate impact assessment, model intercomparison and improvement at the global scale. In 2012 AgMIP led a GGCM Intercomparison fast-track project in coordination with the ... Read More

Canola

The AgMIP-Canola Initiative was launched in 2015, with the goal to identify current canola growth models and reference datasets across the world for model evaluation, inter-comparison and improvement. The key objectives are to identify knowledge gaps, recommend ... Read More

Maize

AgMIP-maize aims to improve and apply crop models in climate change impact and adaptation assessments by bringing together crop modelers, experimentalists, breeders, working with field measurements and future scenarios ... Read More

Barley

AgMIP-barley aims to improve and apply crop models in climate change impact and adaptation assessments. In addition, it will look at how crop models can simulate barley quality since this is one of the most important aspect for barley... Read More
