The DSSAT Foundation, in collaboration with Washington State University, 
the University of Florida, the International Fertilizer Development 
Center, the University of Georgia, and various other institutions, will 
host an International Training Program on DSSAT entitled DSSAT 2016 - 
"Assessing Crop Production, Nutrient Management, Climatic Risk and 
Environmental Sustainability with Simulation Models" from May 16 through 
May 21, 2016 at the University of Georgia Campus in Griffin, Georgia, 
USA. The overall goal of the workshop is to familiarize the workshop 
participants with the Decision Support System for Agrotechnology 
Transfer (DSSAT) and the Cropping System Model (CSM) for the simulation 
of crop growth and yield, soil and plant water, nutrient, and carbon 
dynamics, and the application of models to real world problems, such as 
crop and resource management, climate change and climate variability, 
carbon sequestration, food security, biofuels, and environmental 
sustainability.
