Variety Specific Agronomy Packages (VSAP) – DAN00129 Take home message: • Grain yield and grain protein concentration of wheat in a specific situation are generally negatively correlated. However initial investigations in 2011 indicate that the wheat variety LongReach Spitfire may have a greater grain protein concentration at a given yield level relative to other wheat varieties. • EGA Gregory ...

A study was conducted to evaluate the effects of liming on chemical properties of wheat field soils and yield of wheat in Ranisankail soil series of Bangladesh. There were eight treatments of liming material applied from dolomite (CaCO3.MgCO3). Yield and yield components of wheat were recorded at harvest and the grain and straw were analyzed for P, S, Ca and Mg contents. The post harvest soils ...

in order to evaluate the relationship between grain yield and agronomic characteristics in bread wheat genotypes in different planting dates under rainfed conditions, a factorial experiment was conducted based on rcbd with four replications at gonbad-e qabus region, iran, during 2012-2014 growing seasons. number of spikes per unit area, grain filling rate, effective grain filling period, number...

A system of midseason prediction of winter wheat grain yield based on sensed plant growth properties has been established. However, little research has been conducted to determine the relationship of grain yield, sensed plant data, and soil electrical conductivity (EC). This study was carried out to determine if soil EC could be useful in better predicting wheat grain yield. During 2001 and 200...

C rop and fertilizer management practices can increase wheat grain protein without sacrificing yield. Growing wheat with high grain protein begins with selecting the appropriate variety and providing enough fertilizer to meet the wheat’s requirements for growth and grain yield. If nutrient levels are sufficient to meet yield goals, then providing adequate available nitrogen (N) may be the most ...

Tillage practices significantly influences soil physical characteristics and crop productivity. The infiltration characteristics, bulk density, porosity, penetration resistance, grain yield of rice and wheat were measured under no-till without residue (NT), roto-tillage (RT), and no-till with residue i.e. happy seeder (HS) in rice-wheat cropping system in sandy loam (SL) and loamy sand (LS) soi...

Appropriate fertilization practice is crucial to achieve maximum wheat grain yield with minimum nitrogen (N) loss. A field 15N micro-plot experiment was conducted to determine the effects of application methods [split application (SA) and band application (BA)] and N rates (60, 150 and 240 kg ha-1) on the wheat grain yield, urea-15N fate and N efficiency in Jiangyan County, China. At high N rat...

This study investigated the interactive effects of different rates of deficit irrigation and timings of N application on wheat and barley yields since there was no report on this important subject. Field experiments in strip-plot designs using sprinkler line sources were conducted for two years at a semi-arid Mediterranean site. The experiments consisted of 4 and 7 irrigation levels with 3 and ...
