Maize grain yield components and source-sink relationship as affected by the delay in sowing date
(Elsevier Science, 2016-11)
Delaying maize (Zea mays L.) sowing date can diminish grain yields through reductions in the number, size and activity of growing grains (sink strength) and/or reductions in the assimilate supply (source capacity) to grains ...
Sowing date effects on cowpea cultivars as a second crop in southeastern Brazil
(2018-09-01)
In southeastern Brazil, there has been increasing interest in cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] cultivation as a second crop. A three-year study was conducted to evaluate the growth, seed yield, and seed protein of ...
Optimization of sowing date and irrigation levels for white oats using the CERES-Barley model
(2021-01-01)
Studies on the use of deficit irrigation and application of models for estimating agronomic performance of crops can help in more sustainable agricultural managements. The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect ...

(Univ Federal Uberlandia, 2014-06-01)
Soybean rust caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi Sydow & P. Sydow is one of the major diseases of the soybean crop. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of sowing dates, plant populations and reduced doses of ...
Strategic use of straw as environmental enrichment for prepartum sows in farrowing crates
(Elsevier B.V., 2021-01-01)
Sows are highly motivated to build a nest prior to farrowing, but, given the barren environment of farrowing crates, this behaviour is limited and improperly expressed. We aimed to assess the effects of a straw provision ...
