Ethiopian government has initiated a wheat self-sufficiency strategies through increasing productivity and expansion of production to the irrigable land areas. This study investigated Cluster based large scale demonstration irrigated bread in Wayu Tuka Jima Arjo Districts. Irrigated build local capacity for wider adoption technologies practices East wollega Zone were main objectives activity. A...

Nitrogen is one of the most important agricultural inputs affecting crop growth, yield and quality in rain-fed cereal production. In this study an image processing based approach was used for detection of nitrogen status in winter wheat. Four N fertilization rates (0, 60, 120 and 240 kg N ha, in total) and two water regimes (irrigated and non-irrigated) were applied to winter wheat. Digital ima...

There is an urgent need for identification of eco-friendly and cleaner production systems that are more productive, profitable, efficiently use energy/water/carbon input environmentally safer. Under context, a long-term experiment was conducted during 2019–21 at the farmers’ fields Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), Gaya, Bihar. The main objective study to evaluate productivity diverse cropping irriga...

efficient use of inputs and energy resources is one of the most important principals of sustainable agriculture. for this purpose, water and energy productivity of irrigated agroecosystems of major crops in kermanshah province were evaluated. the data was collected via questionnaire through face to face interview of 180 farmers of this province during summer 2010. results showed that water prod...

The purpose of this research was to analyzing the perception and technical knowledge of wheat farmers in shoushtar township, Khouzestan province, Iran regarding organic farming products. The research method employed was correlative-descriptive. The population consisted of wheat farmers in Shoushtar township Khuzestan Province of Iran. A random sample of wheat farmers (n = 163) was selected. The...

Water stress is a frequent and critical limit to wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) production in North China. It has been shown that photosynthetic active radiation (PAR) is closely related to crop production. An experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of deficit irrigation and winter wheat varieties on the PAR capture ration, PAR utilization and grain yield. Field experiments involved J...

The growth status of winter wheat in irrigated field and rainfed field are obviously different and the field types may have an effect on the predictive accuracy of hyperspectral model. The objectives of the present study were to understand the difference of spectral sensitive wavelengths for leaf area index (LAI) in two field types and realize its hyperspectral prediction. In study, a total of ...

This research shows that a portfolio of wheat varieties could enhance profitability and reduce risk over the selection of a single variety for Kansas wheat producers. Many Kansas wheat farmers select varieties solely based on published average yields. This study uses portfolio theory from business investment analysis to find the optimal, yield-maximizing and riskminimizing combination of wheat ...

Improving nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) in the major cereals is critical for more sustainable nitrogen use in high-input agriculture, but our understanding of the potential for NUE improvement is limited by a paucity of reliable on-farm measurements. Limited on-farm data suggest that agronomic NUE (AE(N)) is lower and more variable than data from trials conducted at research stations, on which ...
