Wildlife-friendly farming increases crop yield: evidence for ecological intensification
Ecological intensification has been promoted as a means to achieve environmentally sustainable increases in crop yields by enhancing ecosystem functions that regulate and support production. There is, however, little direct evidence of yield benefits from ecological intensification on commercial farms growing globally important foodstuffs (grains, oilseeds and pulses). We replicated two treatme...
متن کاملStochastic Non-Parametric Frontier Analysis
In this paper we develop an approach that synthesizes the best features of the two main methods in the estimation of production efficiency. Specically, our approach first allows for statistical noise, similar to Stochastic frontier analysis, and second, it allows modeling multiple-inputs-multiple-outputs technologies without imposing parametric assumptions on production relationship, similar to...
متن کاملEvaluation of Grain Yield Stability of Durum Wheat Genotypes Using Parametric and Non-Parametric Methods
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L.), like most other crops, is affected by various stresses. Therefore, cultivars that, in addition to the ability to produce higher yields, can maintain their yield potential in different years and locations are considered superior cultivars. In order to obtain high-yielding and stable genotypes of durum wheat, 16 lines with two control cultivars Dehdasht and Sey...
متن کاملUtilization of Univariate Parametric and non-Parametric Methods in the Stability Analysis of Sugar Yield in Sugar Beet (Beta vulgaris L.) Hybrids
Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Sugar is a tonic that produces a large amount of energy in the diet of the world's population. The position of sugar beet in providing part of the sugar required by human society is not hidden from anyone. Given the needs of society, breeding sugar beet hybrids that is high in quantity and quality is inevitable. In addition to plant genetics and ...
متن کاملNon-parametric Crop Yield Forecasting, a Didactic Case Study for Zimbabwe
Operational crop yield forecasting is mostly achieved with empirical statistical regression equations relating regional yield with predictor variables, termed “factors”. Regional yield (the “dependent variable”) refers to average yield over districts, provinces or, more rarely, whole countries; they are provided by national statistical services. The factors can be any combination of raw environ...
