OPTIMIZING WHEAT YIELD AND WATER PRODUCTIVITY USING AQUACROP AND APSIM-WHEAT MODELS IN NORTH NILE DELTA, EGYPT

Estimation of Winter Wheat Biomass and Yield by Combining the AquaCrop Model and Field Hyperspectral Data

Knowledge of spatial and temporal variations in crop growth is important for crop management and stable crop production for the food security of a country. A combination of crop growth models and remote sensing data is a useful method for monitoring crop growth status and estimating crop yield. The objective of this study was to use spectral-based biomass values generated from spectral indices ...

soil water balance and crop yield of winter wheat using aquacrop simulation model

the greatest limitations to agricultural development and production in iran are scarcity of water resources, ineffective irrigation scheduling and wasteful water usage. avenues discussed for optimum water use include improving water productivity by improving irrigation scheduling, farm water management and water profitability. the present study evaluated current water use and ways to improve wi...

Legume Green Fallow Effect on Soil Water Content at Wheat Planting and Wheat Yield

a system has been referred to as green fallow (Gardner et al., 1993). These systems have sometimes been sucGrowing a legume cover crop in place of fallow in a winter wheat cessful in the cooler regions of the northern Great Plains (Triticum aestivum L.)–fallow system can provide protection against (Zentner et al., 2001). Zentner et al. (2004) reported that erosion while adding N to the soil. Ho...

The relationships between grain yield of spring wheat and rainfall distribution in western australia using regression models

Genetic Analysis of Grain Yield and Yield Components in Bread Wheat using Hayman's Diallel Method

Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: By progeny trial after a diallel crossing, the function of genes and inheritance of quantitative traits can be estimated. This increases the ability to select parental lines, to participate in crosses, and determines the management of generations in the segregating populations. Material and Methods: In order to understand the genetic structure of ...
