Comparison of root mean square error (RMSE) and Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency (NSE) between simulated (S) and measured (M) values of leaf area index (LAI) and above-ground dry mass (AGDM) of Chokyung wheat seeded in the fall of 2018 at CNU, Gwangju, and seeded in the spring and fall seasons of 2019 at Gyeongsang National University (GNU), Jinju, south Gyeongsang province, South Korea, with different amounts of nitrogen (N) applications of 40 kg ha−1 at planting, 30 kg ha−1 at rejuvenation, and 0 kg ha−1 at initial reproduction (N40-30-0), N40-30-30, and N40-30-60 for model validation.
