Perennial, banana. Suggest op: Planter, tree, mechanical transplanter; Pruning; Harvest, bananas. Target Yield calibration: NO
crop_devnotes
Cloned from Sugarcane
Population based on 1.8 x 1.8 meter spacing
Yield is set to be reproductive mass
Yield water content increased to 75%
Light Extinction Coefficient set to 0.9 to account for broad leaf horizontal type canopy
Maximum crop height reduced to 2.5 meters
Planting depth assumes a 1 Kilogram rhizome is used as planting the planted mass
Freezing temperatures and damage percentages adjusted to reflect tropical nature of plant
Partitioning set to allow 60% of season for leaf and stem, and the last 40% for fruit development.
Crop height coeffficients set to match
Stem area index (and shoot growth) adjusted to give 10 cm representative stem diameter at full stem development.
Leaf and stem develop uniformly together
Note: the between row cover names do not relect any mechanism in WEPS, so all the banana crops are identical.
