As soybean yield continues to increase, it seems critical to know if there is a yield level at which potential contribution of indigenous nitrogen (N) sources (N fixation and soil mineralization) becomes insufficient to ...

Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) is traditionally known for its better adaptation to drought when compared to other cereals like maize (Zea mays L.). However, genetic gains are significantly higher for maize than for ...

Soil acidity and low natural fertility are the main problems for grain production in Brazilian 'cerrado'. Although lime has been the most applied source for soil correction, silicate may be an alternative material due to ...

Nitrogen (N) is one of the most absorbed and exported nutrients by cotton plants (Gossypium hirsutum L.), but excessive rates can result in excessive growth and reduce fiber yield and quality. Combinations of high N rates ...

This study focuses on the impact of genetic improvement of seed yield plasticity in soybean (Glycine max L.) in high-yielding environments (between 4000 kg ha-1 and 7000 kg ha-1) of Central Argentina. The association between ...

Terrain slope and operators time of experience significantly affect yield and, consequently, wood harvesting costs, which is one of the most costly activities of productive chain of planted forests. A full tree harvesting ...

The importance of yield improvement at farm conditions is highly dependent on the interaction between genotype and environment. The aim of the present work was to assess the attainable yield of a traditional and a modern ...
