10. http://newa.cornell.edu Crop production models Apple physiology –Apple evapotransporation (not yet live) –Apple carbohydrate model for thinning (not automated) Biggest single value and reason I invested in a weather station is the carbohydrate model produced by Dr. Terence Robinson for apple. Has a major impact on the total crop value. Best information of any kind anywhere in the world for apples!!!
