Tannin free lentils: A promising development for specialty use and increased value
Tannin free lentils have been developed and are now available for production over a wide area in North America. The trait is controlled by a single recessive gene that eliminates tannin precursors in the seeds thereby ...
Reliability of Yield Mapping System for Estimating Perennial Ryegrass Seed Yield
Seed yield is an important factor to any farmer. Most farmers recognize that yield will vary within a field due to many factors, but they are unaware of the actual magnitude of the yield variability. Yield mapping is a ...
Sensitivity of vegetation indices and gross primary production of tallgrass prairie to severe drought
Drought affects vegetation photosynthesis and growth.Many studies have used the normalized difference vegetation
index (NDVI), which is calculated as the normalized ratio between near infrared and red spectral bands ...
Role of geoinformatics in ensuing global food security with special reference to dryland agroecosystems
Agriculture plays an important role in providing
food security in developing countries. Better agricultural
information is one of the key factors in understanding current
trends and status that determine food security from ...
Effect of flushing frequency on emitter clogging in microirrigation with effluents
Flushing is an important maintenance task that removes accumulated particles in microirrigation
laterals that can help to reduce clogging problems. The effect of three dripline flushing frequency
treatments (no flushing, ...
Scale Effects of STATSGO and SSURGO on Flow and Water Quality Predictions
Soil information is one of the crucial inputs needed to assess the impacts of existing and alternative agricultural man- agement practices on water quality. Therefore, it is important to understand the effects of spatial ...
Measuring and modeling the effects of drainage water management on soil greenhouse gas fluxes from corn and soybean fields
Controlled tile drainage can boost crop yields and improve water quality, but it also has the potential to
increase GHG emissions. This study compared in-situ chamber-based measures of soil CH4, N2O, and CO2
fluxes for ...
Ties That Bind: USA-ICARDA. The research partnership between ICARDA and the United States of America
Since ICARDA’s inception in 1977, the United States has been the single biggest donor to the center’s research and capacity development programs.
The benefits of this significant investment by US partners are dramatically ...
