abstract
The main aim of this study is to quantify the potential yields of rice in the Mahabubnagar district of Telangana state. For this DSSAT-CERES Rice model is used. The weather, soil and crop management data are collected from NASA Power and some published sources of PJTSAU and ICAR-IIRR. To run any model in DSSAT firstly it should be calibrated and evaluated. Thus DSSAT-CERES Rice model is evaluated and calibrated with the data collected from the farmers of the Mahabubnagar district. The seasonal analysis was carried out and potential yields of 30 years (1993-2022) were calculated.
