世界各地的农业系统模型正越来越多地用于探索粮食安全、适应和减缓气候变化以及碳交易问题领域的备选方案和解决办法。APSIM（农业生产系统模拟器）就是这样一个模型，它继续被应用并适应这一具有挑战性的研究议程。自20年前建立以来，APSIM已发展成为一个框架，其中包含探索农业景观变化所需的许多关键模型，其能力范围从基因表达模拟到多田农场及其他。Keating等人（2003年）详细描述了APSIM的许多基本属性。在过去的十年中，APSIM社区已经发生了很大的变化，并一直在探索新的科学领域，并利用社交媒体，网络和移动的应用程序中的软件开发，以提供适应新需求的模拟工具。本文更新了Keating等人（2003年）的早期工作，并记录了过去十年中不断变化的外部挑战和机遇。它还探讨和讨论了APSIM如何演变成一个“下一代”框架，该框架具有改进的特性和能力，使其能够用于许多不同的主题。皇冠版权所有（C）2014由爱思唯尔有限公司出版。保留所有权利。
Agricultural systems models worldwide are increasingly being used to explore options and solutions for the food security, climate change adaptation and mitigation and carbon trading problem domains. APSIM (Agricultural Production Systems sIMulator) is one such model that continues to be applied and adapted to this challenging research agenda. From its inception twenty years ago, APSIM has evolved into a framework containing many of the key models required to explore changes in agricultural landscapes with capability ranging from simulation of gene expression through to multi-field farms and beyond.Keating et al. (2003) described many of the fundamental attributes of APSIM in detail. Much has changed in the last decade, and the APSIM community has been exploring novel scientific domains and utilising software developments in social media, web and mobile applications to provide simulation tools adapted to new demands.This paper updates the earlier work by Keating et al. (2003) and chronicles the changing external challenges and opportunities being placed on APSIM during the last decade. It also explores and discusses how APSIM has been evolving to a "next generation" framework with improved features and capabilities that allow its use in many diverse topics.
