Transfer learning through domain adaption can potentially improve machine learning performance in this context, though the application to crop yield prediction is in its infancy. Domain adaptation is a subset of transfer learning methods which aim to transfer knowledge established during the training ...
Relation of yield per acre of maize to cost per bagParish, E.Farming in South Africa
Crop yield is vulnerable when drought conditions occur during the reproductive phase of plant growth. Although grain yield (GY) when plants subjected to water stress is the final target trait used to assess the degree of drought tolerance, correlated traits, such as ASI and kernel number per row...
Considering the importance of maize, increasing its yield under adverse environments has been the main objective of maize breeders [30]. Improving drought tolerance in maize is significant in ensuring food security [31]. Classical breeding methods have shown limited progress in improving maize ...
On the other hand, sorghum yield was relatively high in Chikwawa (211.4 kg/acre ± 174.0) compared to Nsanje (174.3 kg/acre ± 242.0) and Blantyre (87.0 kg/acre ± 93.5). 2.2. Knowledge, Attitude and Practice Farmers’ knowledge on aflatoxin contamination and pre- and post-harvest crop...
The typical Maya household is threatened, as their most important crops, maize and beans, are expected to suffer in the future [21], and the suitability and yield of these two crops are expected to decrease significantly [5,46–48]. The main problem is that the traditional shifting ...
