BioCro: Modular Crop Growth Simulations

A cross-platform representation of models as sets of equations that facilitates modularity in model building and allows users to harness modern techniques for numerical integration and data visualization. Documentation is provided by several vignettes included in this package; also see Lochocki et al. (2022) <doi:10.1093/insilicoplants/diac003>.
