Abstract,Fresenius Environmental Bulletin, 2019 This study was conducted to determine the effects on the weeds and cultivated plants in the wheat agro-ecosystems of the wood vinegar in the biopesticide potential obtained from hazelnut shells on certain growth and yield parameters. The study was...
Abstract, International Journal of Agricultural and Biological Engineering, 2019 The study investigates the applicability of solid desiccant system for drying of freshly harvested wheat grains in order to reduce the moisture content to an optimum level. Fast and low-temperature drying systems are...
Abstract, Science Advances, 2018 Nov Testing our understanding of crop yield responses to weather fluctuations at global scale is notoriously hampered by limited information about underlying management conditions, such as cultivar selection or fertilizer application. Here, we demonstrate that...
2006-10-20 A new strain or strains of wheat stem rust are especially dangerous, because many wheat cultivars in major wheat producing countries show little or no resistance. The spores of the fungus are well adapted for long distance travel on high-altitude wind currents.
CIMMYT works throughout the developing world to improve livelihoods and foster more productive, sustainable maize and wheat farming systems. Our portfolio squarely targets critical challenges, including food insecurity and malnutrition, climate change and environmental degradation. Through...
2003-01-01 The purpose of this study is to analyze variation in wheat yields and to assess the range of factors affecting wheat yields and profitability of wheat production in the selected irrigation systems in India and Pakistan. The study attempts to identify constraints and opportunities for closing the...
