Genetic potential for grain yield in spring barley varieties and variety mixtures in variable organic environments [PDF]
For organic crop production, well-characterised varieties increase the possibilities for controlling diseases and weeds and compensating for deficits in nutrients.

Improving fertiliser management: redefining the relationship between soil tests and crop responses for wheat in WA [PDF]
Most soils in Western Australia (WA) are highly weathered with very low levels of phosphorus. WA soils initially contained adequate indigenous soil potassium for cropping but removal of potassium over time in harvested grain has gradually resulted in the

The efficiency of a durum wheat-winter pea intercrop to improve yield and wheat grain protein concentration depends on N availability during early growth [PDF]
Grain protein concentration of durum wheat is often too low, particularly in low-N-input systems. The aim of our study was to test whether a durum wheat - winter pea intercrop can improve relative yield and durum wheat grain protein concentration in low ...

Grouping of Late Maturing Corn Hybrids in Relation to some Agronomic Traits [PDF]
Study the relationships of some agronomic traits with grain yield of 14 late maturing corn hybrids, an experiment based in RCBD with four replications was carried out at Miyandoab Agricultural and Natural Resources Research Station in 2009.

Performance of contrasted rice genotypes grown under water saving irrigation and trait discovery for genotype improvement : [Abstract, P 3.06] [PDF]
Water saving technologies without reduction on grain yield, like alternate wetting and drying (AWD), have been implemented successfully in irrigated rice fields.

Optimizing a green manure-based row cropping system for organic cereal production [PDF]
A row cropping system with an increase of row distance to 24 cm increased the growth of undersown cover crops and allowed 1-2 passes of interow hoeing for weed control before sowing cover crops.

A novel QTL GSE3.1 regulates grain size and weight in rice
Grain size is a crucial agronomic trait that directly determines grain yield. To elucidate molecular mechanisms of grain size control will help breeders develop high-yield varieties.

Study of yield components under heat stress conditions in wheat [PDF]
High temperature tolerance can be characterised by measuring various plant productivity traits in different developmental stages. The present work investigated the effect of exposure to high temperature (30-35°C) at first node appearance, during ...

Economic analysis of site-specific wheat management with respect to grain quality and separation of the different quality fractions [PDF]
The paper analyzes site-specific and uniform management options for wheat production with respect to grain quality. Besides site-specific fertilization the economic potential of segregation of different grain qualities is the subject of this paper. Yield
