Yield Gaps in Wheat: Path to Enhancing Productivity [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Wheat production is required to supply food for the world’s population, and increases in production will be necessary to feed the expanding population. Estimates show that production must increase by 1 billion metric tons to meet this demand.

Remote Sensing-Based Quantification of the Summer Maize Yield Gap Induced by Suboptimum Sowing Dates over North China Plain

Remote Sensing, 2021
Estimating yield potential (Yp) and quantifying the contribution of suboptimum field managements to the yield gap (Yg) of crops are important for improving crop yield effectively. However, achieving this goal on a regional scale remains difficult because

Investigation of the Limiting Factors of Wheat Seed Yield in the Eastern Region of Kerman [PDF]

Ikufīziyuluzhī-i Giyāhān-i Zirā̒ī, 2021
To investigate and determine the limiting factors of wheat grain yield and the contribution of each of these factors in creating wheat grain yield gap, this study was conducted based on the CPA method (comparison performance analysis) in the eastern part

Estimating Pesticide Inputs and Yield Outputs of Conventional and Organic Agricultural Systems in Europe under Climate Change

Agronomy, 2021
Simulating organic agriculture is a considerable challenge. One reason is that few models are capable of simulating crop-pest interactions and the yield losses they cause.

Plant and Weed Identifier Robot as an Agroecological Tool Using Artificial Neural Networks for Image Identification

Agriculture, 2021
Farming systems form the backbone of the world food system. The food system, in turn, is a critical component in sustainable development, with direct linkages to the social, economic, and ecological systems. Weeds are one of the major factors responsible

Fusarium Crown Rot Reduces Water Use and Causes Yield Penalties in Wheat under Adequate and above Average Water Availability

Agronomy, 2022
The cereal disease Fusarium crown rot (FCR), caused by the fungal pathogen Fusarium pseudograminearum, is a worldwide major constraint to winter cereal production but especially in Australia’s northern grain’s region (NGR) of NSW and Queensland ...

Narrowing Yield Gaps and Enhancing Nitrogen Utilization for Summer Maize (Zea mays L) by Combining the Effects of Varying Nitrogen Fertilizer Input and Planting Density in DSSAT Simulations

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
In China, the most common grain crop is maize (Zea mays). The increasing pressure to meet the food demands of its growing population has pushed Chinese maize farmers toward an excessive use of chemical fertilizers, a practice which ultimately leads to a ...

Closing county-level yield gaps through better phosphorus fertilizer management in Northeast China

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
The limited available information on variations in yield gaps (differences between actual yields and the theoretically attainable yields) restricts the development of rational strategies to optimize yields and reduce environmental costs.
