Calibration of cultivar parameters of a crop simulation model can represent a considerable challenge when observed data for a single cultivar is available for multiple environments. Calibration can be considered as a search of the optimal set of parameters in a multidimensional parameter space. An evolutionary algorithm with self-adaptation has been developed and applied to calibrate parameters of the Sirius crop simulation model for several experimental datasets
