VALLA (Version 1.0): A Simulation Model for Growth of American Wildcelery

Abstract : This manual has been written as a practical guide for the operational use of VALLA (version 1.0), a personal computer-based software package that simulates growth of American wildcelery. This manual includes instructions for installing and using the VALLA software package as well as example runs to provide further information to facilitate proper execution and to demonstrate applications.
