Abstract
Drought is a major yield limiting factor in peanut production. Characterization of drought stress patterns of major production areas and information on crop responses to different levels of drought stresses are needed for the development of appropriate management strategies for individual locations. The CSM-CROPGRO-Peanut model could help in obtaining the required information, but its capability in predicting crop responses to different levels of drought stress needs to be firstly established. The objective of this study was to evaluate the capability of the CSM-CROPGRO-Peanut model in simulating the responses of two peanut cultivars to three levels of soil moisture regimes. The experiments were conducted under field conditions in the dry seasons of 2004 and 2005 at the Field Crop Research Station of Khon Kaen University in northeast Thailand. A split-plot in a randomized complete block design with 4 replications was used. Three levels of soil moisture (field capacity, 2/3 available water and 1/3 available water) were assigned to main-plots and two peanut cultivars (KK60-3 and Tainan 9) were arranged in sub-plots. Data collected on growth and development of the two peanut cultivars under the three soil moisture regimes were compared with the corresponding simulated data from model simulation using the CSM-CROPGRO-Peanut model. The results showed that the model performed fairly in simulating phonological development and patterns of dry matter accumulation but performed reasonably well in predicting the final biomass and pod yields of the two peanut cultivars under the three soil moisture regimes. The model, however, could predict the relative yield reductions from drought stress of the individual peanut cultivars quite accurately and could provide information on the time of occurrence and severity of water stress during the cropping period. These results indicate that the CSM-CROPGRO-Peanut model is sufficiently capable to be used in generating the required information for determining appropriate managements of drought stress
