Theme 32: Use of Information and Analytical Systems
Description
CSIRO's new FarmWi$e decision support tool provides a framework that permits pasture-livestock systems and management policies of any level of complexity to be simulated. An underlying "modelling protocol" permits other simulation models to be added, further extending its domain of applicability. Management policies are specified in FarmWi$e by means of rules that govern when, whether and how management events take place. An example of the use of FarmWi$e to study lamb production is given.
