For Galactic Cosmic rays (GCRs) the hadronic interaction with the ambient gas are the most relevant energy loss channel. These interactions produce gamma-rays in the very high energy band as well as neutrinos, electrons and positrons. One tracer of the interactions of the GCRs of the local interstellar spectrum are gamma-ray observations of local giant molecular clouds (GMCs).

In this talk the implementation of hadronic interactions for primary protons on a proton target, based on different parametrisations of the production cross-section, is presented. We apply different interaction models to simulate the interactions of GCRs with the GMC Rho-Oph. The results of the parametrised models are compared to directly interfaced event generators and current observations.
