Climate change and agricultural malpractices are exacerbating drought in many parts of the
world causing a substantial agricultural production loss. The improvement of drought …

Drought is a major abiotic stress limiting growth and productivity of field and horticultural
crops. Exogenous application of silicon (Si) and arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) …

Adoption of appropriate agronomic practices, such as optimum seeding and nitrogen (N)
rates, in synchronization with proper water management practice could help improve yield …

A factorial experiment consisting of three factors, namely six fertilizer doses including
different combinations of potassium (K) and silicon (Si) along with nitrogen (N) and …

Seed priming is a vital seed enhancement tool used for mitigating various biotic and abiotic
stresses, improving seedling growth and enhancing crop productivity. Alternate wetting and …

Crop improvement for Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE) requires a well-defined phenotype and
genotype, especially for different N-forms. As N-supply enhances growth, we …

Effective water and nitrogen (N) management strategies are critical for sustainable
agricultural development. Lysimeter experiments with two deep percolation rates (low …

Selection of an appropriate sowing date in combination with optimum nitrogen (N) rate and
irrigation water management is important to optimize grain yield, water productivity, and N …

Abstract Enhancing Nitrogen Use Efficiency (NUE) is extremely important towards mitigating
climate change, especially in wheat where the NUE is less than 50%. Hence, optimizing …

Crop models have been designed to capture agronomic and environmental variables.
Irrigation and nitrogen (N) application are critical factors in agroecosystems for achieving …
