The potential yield of potato is defined as the theoretical yield that can be assessed for a
well-adapted cultivar, grown from the best possible seed under optimal conditions. More …

Building resilience to climate change in agricultural production can ensure the functioning of
agricultural-based livelihoods and reduce their vulnerability to climate change impacts. This …

In 1994, LINTUL-POTATO was published, a comprehensive model of potato development
and growth. The mechanistic model simulated early crop processes (emergence and leaf …

Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) is a hunger breaking energy rich crop. We compared tuber
growth and size attributes, energy and economic indices of potato cultivation on ridges …

Explorations of the impact of climate change on potential potato yields were obtained by
downscaling the projections of six different coupled climate models to high spatial resolution …

Estimating crop coefficients and evapotranspiration (ET) accurately is crucial for optimizing
irrigation. Remote sensing techniques using green canopy cover, leaf area index (LAI), and …

This study aims to assess the risks and opportunities posed by climate change to potato
growers in South Africa and to evaluate adaptation measures in the form of changes in …

Unlike smaller raptors, which can readily use flapping flight, large raptors are mainly
restricted to soaring flight due to energetic constraints. Soaring comprises of two main …

In Chile, potatoes are grown in a wide range of ecological zones and levels of technology
resulting in wide ranges of crop management and yields. The aim of the present study was …

Specialist predators are generally negatively impacted by habitat change. Predators that
inhabit transformed areas are usually forced to diversify their diet and this departure away …
