Advances in barley breeding for improving nitrogen use efficiency [PDF]
Crop breeding for high nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) or tolerance to low nitrogen fertilization is thought to be an ideal solution to reduce the cost, carbon footprint, and other environmental problems caused by the excess use of nitrogen fertilizers. As

Regional differences in nitrogen balance and nitrogen use efficiency in the rice–livestock system of Uruguay [PDF]
The reintegration of crops with livestock systems is proposed as a way of improving the environmental impacts of food production globally, particularly the impact involving nitrogen (N).

Exploiting genetic variation in nitrogen use efficiency [PDF]
Cereals are the most important sources of calories and nutrition for the human population, and are an essential animal feed. Food security depends on adequate production and demands are predicted to rise as the global population rises.

The evaluation of ground based remote sensing systems for canopy nitrogen management in winter wheat [PDF]
Nitrogen management is a crucial issue in terms of environmental and economical efficiency for winter wheat husbandry. Precision Agriculture in particular Remote Sensing, has been used to determine the variability of the crop.

Controlled traffic farming effects on productivity of grain sorghum, rainfall and fertiliser nitrogen use efficiency [PDF]
Controlled traffic farming (CTF) is a mechanisation system in which all machinery has the same (or modular) working and track width so that field traffic can be confined to the least possible area of permanent traffic lanes.

Effect of Nitrogen Fertilizer and Irrigation Levels on Yield and Some Physiological Traits of Wheat under Drip Irrigation [PDF]
IntroductionWheat is globally one of the most critical cereals. It is necessary to increase its yield to cope with the increasing population through management improvement or breeding due to decreased arable lands.
