Description

Proso millet (Panicum miliaceum L.) is a drought tolerant underutilised crop cultivated in rainfed subsistence agricultural systems. Proso millet yields were simulated using a calibrated Agricultural Production Systems Simulator (APSIM) model for 95 locations in Sri Lanka. The yield maps were generated according to the Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) model using ArcMap 10.7.1. The database contains Proso millet yield maps for current climate and yield change under 5 hypothetical climate change scenarios; 1oC, 1.5 oC and 2 oC temperature increments, 25% rainfall increment, and 25% rainfall reduction compared to the baseline (1980-2009) climate.
