The CERES-Wheat Crop Growth and Development model treats temperature,
nitrogen and water stresses as limiting factors. For each day the model calculates a
stress index for temperature, N and water, compares the magnitude of the indices,
and then adjusts the calculated daily potential growth using the index of the most...
No-tillage winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grown in a
wheat-fallow cropping system has consistently produced lower grain
yields than conventionally tilled soils in the semiarid Pacific
Northwest. A 2-year study was conducted in a long-term tillage trial
at Moro, OR to determine factors responsible for differences in wheat
growth and...
