4. Create a Crop2ML package

In the context of large projects and collaborative work, it is useful to define some requirements or standards to facilitate common exchange. Crop2ML provides a logical, standardized but flexible support to facilitate model components sharing between modeling platforms through the definition of a directory structure A Crop2ML package is a crop modelling exchange project with a specific structure and which contains Crop2ML files as xml files and algo, the sources files, data, tests and documentation

This video will guide you to create a Crop2ML package from few information.

Consider that we would like to create a package of the Energy balance model component described in https://www1.clermont.inra.fr/siriusquality/?page_id=547. We do that by providing the below information into the qgrid widget and click Apply
