## Description

This MCP server provides advanced modeling for regenerative agriculture. It uses growing degree day (GDD) models to estimate biomass accumulation, nitrogen content, and C:N ratios for various cover crop species. Users can use `predict_biomass_metrics` to calculate chemical composition, `find_optimum_termination` to identify the best date for nitrogen credit maximization, `get_species_growth_parameters` to retrieve biological constants, and `analyze_growth_environment` to assess if environmental conditions support species maturity.

## Tools

### get_species_growth_parameters
Retrieves the biological constants required for modeling a specific species

### analyze_growth_environment
Validates if the current environmental conditions are sufficient for the selected species to reach maturity

### find_optimum_termination
Identifies the best date to terminate the crop to maximize nitrogen credits

### predict_biomass_metrics
Calculates total biomass and chemical composition for a specific growth period

## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Predict the biomass and nitrogen content for Cereal Rye planted on 2024-03-01 and terminated on 2024-05-15 with 0.3 soil moisture.
```

**Response:** 
```
The expected biomass for Cereal Rye is 2450 kg DM/ha with a nitrogen content of 3.2%.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
When is the best time to terminate my Crimson Clover to get the most nitrogen credit?
```

**Response:** 
```
The optimal termination date for Crimson Clover is 2024-05-20, yielding an expected nitrogen credit of 45 kg N/ha.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Will my oats reach maturity given this temperature profile?
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, the accumulated GDD and soil moisture levels are sufficient for the oats to reach maturity.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**How does the tool calculate biomass?**
Biomass is determined by cumulative Growing Degree Days (GDD) derived from the temperature profile, adjusted by soil moisture and nitrogen availability.

**What is a nitrogen credit?**
A nitrogen credit is the amount of nitrogen released into the soil by decomposing cover crops that can be used by the next crop.

**Can I find the best time to harvest my cover crop?**
Yes, you can use `find_optimum_termination` to identify the date that maximizes nitrogen credits while meeting biomass thresholds.
