Dear AgModellers/DSSATers

Apologies for cross-postings.

As its co-developer along with Tony Hunt, I was just interested to get some
idea of the use of the DSSAT cassava model (also variously known as the
GUMCAS or CROPSIM-Cassava model). If anyone has worked with it in the past
or is working with it at the moment (or is intending to work with it in the
future for that matter) could you let me know? I am particularly interested
in what it is/has been/will be used for, and in which countries, and whether
you think that it has had any impact in any way whatsoever.

This is part of my ongoing quest to find uptake and applications of
crop/soil models which was the subject of previous discussions on these
listservers a little while ago.
