Utilizing spatial variability in soil properties to make decision of various farming technologies has been explored. The objective of the work is the development of approaches taking into account spatial variability of hydro-physical properties of soils during plant’s production process simulation (wheat crop) using the AGROTOOL – the crop simulation model – in order to support decision making in practical adaptive landscape agriculture. The studies were conducted using a software package, which was based on coupling GIS with AGROTOOL. Impact of spatial variability of soil hydro-physical properties on crop yield has been evaluated.
