WinEPIC is a production-risk management model designed to help agricultural practitioners optimize crop management and maximize production and profit. Also, it allows users to identify limitations to crop yield, assist growers with replant decisions, and to identify best management practices that minimize impact of agriculture on soil erosion and water quality. It is a Windows-based application of EPIC (Environmental/Policy Integrated Climate model) that simulates the interaction of natural resources (soil, water, climate) and crop management practices to estimate impacts on harvested crop yield, soil properties, soil erosion, profitability, and nutrient/pesticide fate.
