The continued improvement of crop yield is a fundamental driver in agriculture and is the
goal of both plant breeders and researchers. Plant breeders have been remarkably …

Barley (Hordeum vulgare. L) is adapted to drought and salinity as the most critical
constrained factors in Iran's crop production. Hence, the grain barley's importance is …

Context or problem A trade-off between seed protein concentration (SPC) and yield has
been reported for soybean. Therefore, assessing management practices that can nullify this …

CONTEXT Global climate change is resulting in more frequent and more damaging extreme
events affecting the performance of production systems. It is imperative to develop good …

Annual productivity of croplands can be increased by intensifying cropping sequences and
fine-tuning agronomic management, improving the ratio between seasonal grain yield and …

Abstract The Argentinean Gran Chaco is one of the global regions with the highest recent
rates of agricultural expansion due to soybean production. The area has been heavily …

Climate is known to impact the growth of plantation forests in South Africa. To characterize
the conditions, this study developed temperature and rainfall models for specific plantations …

Capture of radiation by crop canopies drives growth rate, grain set, and yield. Since the
fraction of photosynthetically active radiation absorbed by green area (fAPARg) correlates …

Highlights•We assessed drivers underlying yield response to management in producer
fields.•The approach consisted of producer data, crop modeling, and satellite imagery.•Yield …

Surface solar radiation (SSR) determines the energy and climate of the Earth's biosphere,
critically powering photosynthesis, thus contributing to productivity of crops like maize. SSR …
