Who requires an APSIM Licence?
Anyone who downloads and runs APSIM. There are two types of licences:

If you are or plan to use APSIM for commercial purposes, then you need to apply for a commercial licence. If your use is non-commercial (i.e. producing publicly available outputs of knowledge) then you can choose the Non-Commercial Research and Development Licence when you apply to download the model.

However, there are currently more models available in APSIM Classic, so please refer to this list – Models in Release – APSIM
