Water Use Efficiency (WUE) in Maize grain yield in Ethiopia (Map) under unfertilized conditions, 90 kg ha-1 Nitrogen and 30 kg ha-1 Phosphorus application rate, 225 kg ha-1 Nitrogen and 75 kg ha-1 Phosphorus application rate, 2004-2010

Water Use Efficiency (RUE) for maize grain yield across the Ethiopia has been estimated under fertilized conditions using crop model LINTUL5 embedded into the modeling framework SIMPLACE (Scientific Impact Assessment and Modelling Platform for Advanced Crop and Ecosystem Management.

Purpose: To increase food production, identifying the regions with untapped production capacity is of prime importance and can be achieved by quantitative and spatially explicit estimates of Water use efficiency, thus considering the spatial variation in environment and the production system.
