We used official agricultural statistics at the county level (N = 2,354) for each year from 1980 to 2011 for all of China to analyse the changes in spatial clustering and inequality of overall cropland and of the harvested areas of the five major crops (rice, maize, wheat, soybean, and...

The world’s major food crops—rice, wheat, corn—must be planted again after every hard vest. That’s a lot of work for farmers and can contribute to environmental problems such as soil erosion(侵蚀). This year, researchers in China showed a new variety—perennial(多年生的)rice, one that...
The world's major food crops — rice,wheat,corn — must be planted again for every harvest.That's a lot of work for farmers and can contribute to environmental problems such as soil erosion (水土流失).Perennial (多年生的) grains that survive and produce year after year could ease the burd...
Rice, wheat, corn, soybeans, and sorghum are the five major crops in China, which account for 92% of the country's total grain production and 33% of its water consumption. Combining water footprint analysis tools with sustainability assessment tools, the water sustainability of the five major...
Although its autumn grain fields suffered losses, harvesting will soon be completed on 76 million mu of crops. Henan's annual grain output is expected to remain stable at more than 65 billion kg. Meanwhile, in central China's Hunan Province, Zhang Shunda, a veteran grain grower in Taoyuan ...

Nutrient use efficiency is an important index not only for fertilizer recommendation on the field scale but also for forecasting fertilizer demand on the regional and national scales,however,exact nutrient use efficiencies of the major cereal crops in China are not well known yet.In this paper,data...
