Diversification of cropping systems has been proposed as a major mechanism to move
towards sustainable cropping systems. To date, a diversification option that has received …

Crop sensing technologies to aid nitrogen management in grain crops have been the focus
of an important element of Precision/Digital Agriculture research. We review sensor-based …

Unmanned aerial system (UAS)-based remote sensing is one promising technique for
precision crop management, but few studies have reported the applications of such systems …

Understanding factors underpinning the variability in nitrogen (N) utilization efficiency
(NUtE)[ie grain yield per unit of N uptake at maturity (Nup MAT)] is critical to direct future …

Context Late-season nitrogen (N) application has been proposed to boost grain yield and
grain protein concentration (GPC) in cereals; however, its effects on bread and durum wheat …

Due to the asymptotic nature of the crop yield response curve to fertilizer N supply, the
nitrogen use efficiency (NUE, yield per unit of fertilizer applied) of crops declines as the crop …

Historically, the agronomic focus of crop mineral nutrition has yielded responses to
individual elements (N, P, K…) to determine the economically optimum fertilization rates …

Context or problem Nitrogen is one of the important elements of crops, which plays a
decisive role in crop growth and development and the formation of yields. Monitoring of rice …

This paper reviews the interactions between water and nitrogen from physiological,
agronomic, economic, breeding and modelling perspectives. Our primary focus is wheat; we …

Increasing yield and grain protein concentration (GPC) in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
without excessive nitrogen (N) rates requires increasing N use efficiency (NUE, yield per …
