ALMANAC Simulation Model
headline bar

      

The   model now comes with a windows interface and uses the most up-to-date soil surveys from the NRCS WEB SOIL SURVEY.    Weather parameters are loaded with one click!  

 

To download the beta version, click on: GeoAlmanac 

Note to current AutoAlmanac users: If you already have made any changes to the tillage or crops databases-to preserve your changes you must make a copy of your "almanac.mdb" found in the "C:\Program Files|Almanac\Databases\" folder.  This copy needs to be placed outside the Almanac folder and then recopied back once the newest version of Almance is installed.

Also, be sure and read:   Howtosoils.doc

Notice GeoALMANAC will only operate on XP and VISTA at this time, an upgrade for Windows 7 will be available soon.  For installing and running GeoALMANAC with an XP emulator, you must download a .net 2.0 Framework and also add the files: mfc71.dll, msvcp71.dll and msvcr71.dll to c:\windows\system32 in the virtual XP mode environment.
