Abstract
A model provides information and expertise that growers can use if packaged as a management tool that is easy to use and increases profitability.
Such tools can be simple, such as a ruler, or complex, such as large-scale decision support software.
The latter are difficult to sustain due to the high costs of support, coupled with a relatively small user-base.
Model-based tools need to be simple and easy to use in order for growers to use them long term.
