Abstract

Hydrologic and crop growth models were used to investigate the feasibility of ratoon cropping of grain sorghum in the Central Texas Blacklands. Studies of predicted yields for 1939-1978 showed that the probability of the soil water profile being fully recharged was only 2% and that yields with normal water levels were inadequate
