This research was conducted to evaluate the trend of cadmium accumulation in wheat tissue and cultivated soil affected conventional cropping systems and different growth stage via split plot experiment based on randomized complete block design with three replications during 2014-2015 seasonal year. The main factor included two cropping systems (wheat-rice, fallow-wheat) and growth stage at thre...

IPSIM (Injury Profile SIMulator) is a generic modelling framework presented in a companion paper. It aims at predicting a crop injury profile as a function of cropping practices and abiotic and biotic environment. IPSIM's modelling approach consists of designing a model with an aggregative hierarchical tree of attributes. In order to provide a proof of concept, a model, named IPSIM-Wheat-Eyespo...

Cropping system level study is not only useful to understand to overall sustainability of agricultural system, but also it helps in generating many important parameters which are useful in climate change impact assessment. Considering its importance, Space Applications Centre, took up a project for mapping and characterizing major cropping systems of Indo-Gangetic Plains of India. The study are...

Four million hectares of wheat are planted after cotton and rice in Pakistan. Little research has been done on the aronomy of wheat following these crops on a cropping pattern basis. Both of these crops delay wheat planting, and it is estimated that 40–50 kg of wheat grain is lost for every day that planting is delayed past 20 November. Current recommendations for land preparation, fertilizer u...

in order to investigate the competition indices of intercropping wheat and chickpea under nitrogen consumption, an experiment was arranged as factorial based on randomized complete block design with three replications during 2009 – 2010 in gonbad kavous university farm. planting patterns factor included four levels of sole cropping wheat (w), two rows of wheat with one row of chickpea (w2c1) on...

Emerald, north-east Queensland, is at the northern margin of the wheat cropping region of Australia. The Emerald region was previously used predominantly for grazing beef cattle; however, cropping has developed in importance over the past 30 years. We use historical climate records (1890-1998) to simulate and compare wheat yields, grass production and live-weight gain (LWG) over time. The cropp...

Wheat–cotton double cropping practices on a large scale in cotton belt of the Yellow RiverValley and the Yangtze River Valley in China. Field experiments were conducted to determinethe effects of wheat–cotton double cropping on cotton biomass accumulation and yieldformation during 2011/12 and 2012/13 growing seasons. Two cotton cultivars, Siza 3 (mid–latematurity) and CCRI 50 (early maturity), ...
