How to Operate MCREW


This section describes the details of how to use the MCREW interface to perform a simulation rum.

Opening MCREW Within WEPS

Management rotation scenarios for a simulation run can be selected or a rotation editor can be opened by using the ‘MCREW' button on the left side of the bottom panel of the WEPS main screen (see Figure below).



A management rotation for a WEPS simulation run can be selected from pre-generated management files. Click the template folder in the management box which is located in the bottom panel of the main screen (Fig. .1) and then select the management rotation desired from the template directory. Once selected, the name of the management file will appear in the panel. The user may also select management files stored in the current WEPS project directory by clicking on the project folder . Usually, management rotation files in a WEPS project are derivatives of those selected from the "Template" directory with local "project specific" modifications. To open the Management/Crop Rotation Editor for WEPS (MCREW), double click on the ‘MCREW' button , on the left side of the management box. This will open the MCREW main screen , which allows the user to view, edit, and save management rotation information.
