Before the introduction of genetically modified insect-tolerant maize (Zea mays L.) in 1997,
most of the production of this staple in Argentina was concentrated in humid and sub-humid …

Many soil and weather variables can affect the economical optimum nitrogen (N) rate
(EONR) for maize. We classified 54 potential factors as dynamic (change rapidly over time …

Abstract Soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] is one of the most important crops worldwide, and
Argentina is the third largest global grain producer and the worlds´ largest meal exporter …

Abstract Stable isotopes (eg, 15 N) can be used to develop best practices for fertilizer
management in cereal crops under tropical conditions. The objectives of this study were to …

Optimizing grain production implies defining the best management practices for a set of
particular environments. Argentinean farmers in the central temperate region are sowing …

Late sowing dates of maize are widely adopted in the Pampas region of Argentina,
stabilising grain yields due to a more favourable water balance around flowering. However …

Mato Grosso accounts for 25 and 31% of soybean and maize grain production in Brazil,
respectively. Despite the importance of this region, there is limited information to optimize …

The central temperate Argentinean region is currently affected by rising water tables,
allowing higher and more stable maize yields (Zea mays L) when they fluctuate within …

In maize (Zea mays L.) crops, nitrogen (N) status at silking (R1) has been used to predict
grain yield (GY) response to N fertilization and to develop strategies to manage crop …

Soybean is commonly cultivated under rainfed conditions being water availability the main
constraint. We evaluated the performance of different managements under contrasting water …
