North-west Indian agriculture is dominated by rice-wheat rotation in which the wheat season ('rabi', November to March) is characterized by predominantly dry conditions鈥攕uperimposed by very high inter-annual variability of rainfall (17 to 260mm in Ludhiana and <1 to 155mm in Delhi). While...
Here, we assume a drought has occurred in a particular year in a district if the rainfall deficit is 25% or more than the normal rainfall in that district. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) has given this definition for meteorological droughts. (The definition is obtained fromhttps://...
What are the climatic conditions required in India for the growth of rice? (i) It is a Kharif crop which requireshigh temperature (above 25 °C). (ii) High humidity with annual rainfall above 100 cm. (iii) In the areas of less rainfall, it grows with the help of irrigation. (iv) ...
Analysing the link between terrestrial ecosystem productivity (i.e., Net Primary Productivity: NPP) and extreme climate conditions is vital in the context of increasing threats due to climate change. To reveal the impact of changing extreme conditions on
AM (Arbuscular mycorrhizal) fungi are important yet unknown components of biodiversity in the agricultural fields in India. To study their diversity and habitat relationships, we characterized and enumerated spores in 55 fields of wheat from 11 agro-climatic regions of India, varying in climatic and...
A global and high-resolution assessment of the green, blue and grey water footprint of wheat The aim of this study is to estimate the green, blue and grey water footprint of wheat in a spatially-explicit way, both from a production and consumption ... MM Mekonnen,AY Hoekstra - 《Hydrol...

Sorghum can adapt to various environments, especially under water deficiency conditions. Due to this characteristic, the crop is a great crop of great utility in the regions with irregular rainfall distribution and high air temperature [8,9]. This is the crop of excellence for waterless areas bec...
We used machine learning to link daily climatic data with annual winter wheat yields from 1985 to 2018. We differentiated the impacts of long-term climatic conditions (e.g., temperature) and weather extremes (e.g., heat waves) on yields during the distinct developmental stages of winter wheat...
(Benkerroum2020). Aflatoxin contamination in maize has also been detected in the United States, particularly under drought conditions that damage crops and encourage fungus growth (Cotty and Jaime-Garcia2007).A. flavuscan cause maize to develop ear rot when the weather is favourable for it to do...
