The Mediterranean basin has been identified as a prominent hotspot of climate change, with
expected negative impacts on crop productivity, among others. Given the primary role that …

In areas with a limited or non-existent network of observing stations, it is critical to assess the
applicability of gridded datasets. This study examined the agreement of Agri4Cast and E …

Climate change is strongly affecting Mediterranean agriculture, prompting urgent adaptation
actions to cope with its negative impacts and to enhance the resilience of agricultural …

With an approach combining crop modelling and biotechnology to assess the performance
of three durum wheat cultivars (Creso, Duilio, Simeto) in a climate change context, weather …

Yield estimations at global or regional spatial scales have been compromised due to poor
crop model calibration. A methodology for estimating the genetic parameters related to grain …

Crop models help in optimizing the farming practices under climate change scenarios. The
CERES-Maize was sensitized for genetic coefficients (P1, P2, P5, G2, G3 and PHINT) using …

Global climate change has several implications on food security. The task of feeding the
growing human population with limited resources is a challenging mission. With modern …

Abstract Cassava (Manihot esculenta Crantz) is a critical food security crop for sub-Saharan
Africa. Efforts to improve cassava through breeding have expanded over the past decade. At …

In most countries where sugarcane is grown, new sugarcane varieties are frequently
introduced to the market; however, the existing crop models are not frequently updated …
