Process: Thin Biomass by Fraction (Flags) (P 48)
This process reduces the crop plant population by the specified value. This process is also a harvest process if components of the "thinned" plants are removed from the field as specified by the removal parameter values. It replaces the P 38 process and includes additional flags that determine whether the harvested material and crop maturity warnings get reported as well as whether this process's results are used during a yield calibration run. Its parameters are:
- Report Harvest
- Specifies whether a harvest yeild is reported:
- Use Harvest in Calibration
- Specifies whether a harvest is used in a yield calibration run.
- 0: Do Not Use
- 1: Use for Calibration
- Harvest Units
- Specifies what harvest units are used:
- 0: Use Units in Crop Record
- 1: Use mass/area Units
- Crop Maturity Warnings
- Specifies whether crop maturity warnings are displayed:
- 0: No Warnings
- 1: Warnings
- Thinning Value
- Fraction of standing biomass flattened, remaining thineed material goes to flat.
- Thinned Yield Removed
- Fraction of yield removed, remaining thinned material goes to flat.
- Thinned Plant Removed
- Fraciton of plant (crop) removed, remaining thinned material goes to flat.
- Thinned Standing Residue
- Fraction of standing residue removed, remaining thinned material goes to flat.
