Bioclimatic modeling and FACE study forecast a bleak future for wheat production in Indiadoi:10.1007/s10661-022-10551-5Environmental Monitoring and Assessment - Since the impact of future climate change on wheat productivity isinconsistent, we studied geographic distribution and yield of wheat using ...
Additionally, any decline in wheat production could lead to a potential foodgrain security issue.What are the Key Points related to Wheat?About: This is the second most important cereal crop in India after rice. It is the main food crop, in the north and north-western part of the country...
Global food security requires food production to be increased in the future decades. Agro-Ecological Zones (AEZ) methodology is a successful approach used in land evaluation studies to support sustainable agricultural development. This approach can facil
There is a gradient of increasing maturity from the north to the south and from the east to the west in the main production regions (Fig.6). The earliest maturity date was in Sichuan province, followed by Hubei province, whereas the latest maturity date was in the northern parts of Gansu,...
The production capacity of corn starch in India was down by around 50% during the COVID-19 lockdown. According to a key statesman of the All India Starch Manufacturers Association, the corn starch industry witnessed a decline of 40%-50% in May 2020 due to subdued market demand. Fur...
wheat production by 202127,28. However, this increase in grain production has led to several challenges, including the unsustainable use of fertilizers and groundwater, and considerable negative environmental impacts5,8. Wheat, the primary water-consuming crop in the HHH region, has made it one ...
Keywords: wheat; sowing date; variety; India 1. Summary The eastern Indo-Gangetic plain is characterized by fertile alluvial soils [1] wherein rice and wheat are predominantly grown. This region has the potential to support high wheat yields if proper crop production practices are put into place...
According to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), Russia produced 86 million tonnes of the popular grain in 2020, trailing only China and India. Making things worse, both China and India consume the lion’s share of their production domestically, making Russia the...
India has the second highest global wheat production after China (FAO, 2020). Previously we reported on associations between grain yield, NUpE, NUtE and whole-crop NRE for 30 Indian cultivars in the Peninsular zone of India. In the present paper for the same set of cultivars we report on ...
Other hotspots of high climatological CEHD-day frequency occur to wheat in North China Plain, and to maize in some localized regions in North China Plain and Northwest China. North China Plain is China’s major wheat production region. The high climatological stress from growing-season CEHD days...
