With the increase in the world population, expected to occur by the end of the century, there is a need to boost food production. The sustainable alternative to achieve higher production is to improve yield of agricultural ...

Maize (Zea Mays L.) grain yield have increased during the last decades and there is an ample range of rates of grain yield increments reported in the literature. Maize hybrids comparison at their optimum plant density might ...

The objective of this work was to assess the spatial and temporal variability of sugarcane yield efficiency and yield gap in the state of Sao Paulo, Brazil, throughout 16 growing seasons, considering climate and soil as ...

The Rio Grande do Sul state is the main Brazilian rice producer (Oryza sativa L.). Despite continue increase of average rice yield in the last years, there is still a huge difference between yield experiments from rice ...

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 ...

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 ...

Maize (Zea Mays L.) grain yield have increased during the last decades and there is an ample range of rates of grain yield increments reported in the literature. Maize hybrids comparison at their optimum plant density might ...

Tillering capacity of wheat is highly influenced by environmental conditions and management practices. This research had as objective to evaluate tiller emission, survival and contribution to grain final yield affected by ...

To meet the estimated future increase in wheat demand, exploring and dissecting the genetic basis of yield related traits play a crucial role in wheat yield improvement. In this study, we evaluated twelve grain yield related ...
