Abstract
The EPIC and CERES simulation models were used to predict spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain yield from long-term (1960-1989) crop ro tations at Melfort, Saskatchewan. Although both models simulated annua l yields poorly, they predicted long-term mean yields with reasonable accuracy.
