Abstract
The creation of an environmental tool diagnosis from existing modules in other models in order to contribute to improve the nitrogen management. Did the simplification of soil description, in terms of horizons number and of the shape’s curve of root profile in the French model of culture STICS, allows us to simulate correctly the quantity of leaching nitrogen?. The main objective is to feign the consequences of the variations of the environment (climatic parameters and soil properties) on the system of culture on agricultural plot production (wheat, corn and mustard) and on the environment (nitrogen leaching).
