Abstract: The experimental results on the growth and development of summer maize with different treatments of sowing dates, water supply in 1999 were used to improve and calibrate a quantitative land production simulation model (PS123)at both potential and water-limited levels based on the principle of other crop growth simulation model. Crop parameter values for common maize cultivar in the North China Plain were derived from the experiment data and default soil parameters were set for 4 local agricultural soils. The experimental data with water-limited treatments was used to validate the calibrated PS12 model. It is concluded that PS123 model had the basic capability for the application of regional land productivity evaluation and the possible improvements for the application of PS123 model were discussed at different scales.
