Dear Colleagues,

I am preparing a short review of crop model applications in the Sudan
and Sahelian zones of West Africa for a project in Mali.  The review
should include both plot-scale applications of process-level models, and
regional-scale yield forecasting applications of possibly simpler
models.  If you have some experience or leads to relevant literature, I
would be grateful.

Regards,
