Estimating Crop Growth Rate with Land Treatment

Journal of Environmental Engineering, 1984
A new and more comprehensive procedure for estimating crop growth rate is illustrated with data from the literature for coastal bermudagrass. Yield data are described by the Gaussian probability function. The effect of irrigation and harvest frequency is shown.

Light and growth rate effects on crop and weed responses to nitrogen

Weed Science, 2004
The nitrogen (N) response of competing plants may be affected by photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) availability and maximum potential growth rate, which determine N requirements. The responses of two crop (corn and soybean) and six weed species (common lambsquarters, common waterhemp, giant foxtail, velvetleaf, wild mustard, and woolly cupgrass)

A Comparison of Population Growth Rate and the Rate of Increase in Food Crop Production in Africa

2020
Millions of people in Africa require sufficient food for healthy living. However, inefficient farming practices are making a lot more people hungry and poor. Simultaneously, the population keeps on increasing. The legitimate question that this study seeks to address is how the production capacity can meet the needs of the increasing population in the ...

Relationship of Radiation, Leaf Area Index and Crop Growth-Rate

Nature, 1961
SHADING experiments, such as those by Blackman and Templeman1 on white clover, have shown the great reduction in crop growth-rate which occurs when light intensity is curtailed. A second factor influencing crop growth-rate is the leaf area index. There is evidence2,3 that the rate of dry matter production by a crop or pasture will increase as the leaf ...

Soybean Seed Number and Crop Growth Rate during Flowering

Agronomy Journal, 1995
AbstractSeeds per unit area is an important yield component in soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill]; however, the mechanisms regulating seed number are not well understood. Field and greenhouse experiments were conducted to investigate the relationship between photosynthesis during flowering and podset and seeds per square meter.

Relations of rice seeding rates to crop and weed growth in aerobic rice

Field Crops Research, 2011
Aerobic rice describes a management adaptation to reduced irrigation water supplies but, due to reduced intervals of flooding in this system, this requires revised weed management approaches to reduce costs and provide effective weed control. One approach is to make the crop more competitive and reduce the effects of weeds on the crop by using higher ...

Evaluating Management Zone Optimal Nitrogen Rates with a Crop Growth Model

Agronomy Journal, 2006
Determining MZ (management zone)‐specific optimal N rate is a challenge in precision crop management. The objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of applying a crop growth model to simulate corn (Zea mays L.) yield at various N levels in different MZs and estimate optimal N rates based on long‐term weather conditions.
