Abstract: In this study, the simulat ion of alfalfa growth and harvest in its f irs-t year growth was made using EPICmodel in Beijing.The results showed that the EPIC model predicted well the alfalfa aboveground biomass. For the cutting,the results of simulation did not differ significantly from the experimental data for aboveground biomass and yield, but forthe residue.the residue.
