Attainable yield achieved for plastic film-mulched maize in response to nitrogen deficit
European Journal of Agronomy, 2014a b s t r a c t Nitrogen (N) stress limits the yields of maize (Zea mays L.) that have been plastic film-mulched in northwest China. Using the tested Hybrid-Maize simulation model, which was combined with field experiments using four levels of N fertilisers (0, 100, 250 and 400 kg N ha −1 ), we aimed to understand the variability of the attainable ...

Using a simulation model to assess potential and attainable sugar cane yield in Mauritius
Field Crops Research, 2000Abstract The Mauritian sugar cane ( Saccharum spp.) industry is characterised by high climatic variability both from year-to-year and across agro-climatic zones. There is a need to assess yield variation with a view to facilitate crop management as well as investment decision-making, such as irrigation schemes. The aim of this study is to assess the

Abstract The increase in annually cropped area that has occurred in the eastern Pampas of South America (Uruguay) since 2002 was largely achieved by converting crop-pasture rotations to continuous annual no-till cropping systems. We studied the impact of this intensification on the attainable wheat yield (Yatt) and the yield gap (Yg), with the latter

Plant Disease
Damage functions, i.e., the relationships between crop yield loss (or relative yield loss) and disease injury provide pivotal quantitative knowledge to inform tactical and strategic decisions for disease management. Damage functions depend on the level of the attainable yield (Ya), i.e., on crop yield in absence of injury.

As the growth in global population has led to greater demands for food and energy, societies have been pressured to increase food production. Closing the gap between current and potential yields is one means of producing more food. In this study, we first identify the gaps between the potential yield and actual on-farm yield of maize for ten climate ...
