Every crop has its own genetic plasticity, and the higher the level of plasticity, the wider its adaptability. Similarly, each crop variety has its own biological ceiling for economic yield, based on its idiotype, genetic architecture, and biological function. You mentioned harvesting a record maize yield of 100 quintals per acre, which is still lower than the demonstrated biological ceiling for maize, recorded at 156.5 quintals per acre in Virginia, USA, in 2019. Maize crops mature anywhere between 85 and 120 days and are grown at different planting densities, with plant populations varying from 8,000 to 16,000 per acre. Therefore, it is important to consider per-day productivity and the cost-benefit ratio (CBR), in addition to yield in isolation, as well as carbon footprints. Dr. M S Basu, MD SBSF Consultancy.

💧 Fertigation, a term that combines the words 'fertilizer' and 'irrigation,' has existed as a concept for hundreds of years, where farmers in ancient Rome would actually use sewage to water their crops, although it has evolved significantly since this time. ◾ Agriculture accounts for 65-80% of total N2O emissions globally, primarily using nitrogenous fertilizers on cultivated soils, cattle, and feedlots (Khanal, 2009; Savci, 2012). Fertigation, a fundamental solution, enhances fertilizer efficiency, leading to savings and improving crucial agricultural indicators like #cropyield and #watermanagement. THABANG HABI, in this article, describes in detail the advantages and disadvantages of this method and the challenges that farmers should consider before integrating into their field. 🖥 [https://lnkd.in/gRGYPa4R] #dripirrigation #agricultureinnovation #smartfarming #agrotech

In the arid and semi-arid regions, regional advection (horizontal movement of hot weather into the crop fields) plays a major role in increasing crop evapotranspiration. Generally, advection is ignored in irrigation planing and scheduling and would ultimately impose water stress on crops during hot days and periods. In this paper, we have introduced and proposed a simple approach in taking into account the effect of advection on determining crop water requirement considering two quinoa cultivars.

Check out how Sentinel Fertigation delivers nitrogen savings and increased yields—and is looking to expand on-farm trials from our September issue. Sentinel Fertigation’s N-Time solution is a web-based program that uses satellite imagery to help farmers improve nitrogen use efficiency by more than 25 percent and save more than 40 pounds of nitrogen per acre. In this interview with Founder and CEO Jackson Stansell, we hear more about the results of recent testing and how interested growers can get involved in on-farm trials of their own. https://bit.ly/4fWahbD #IrrigationLeader #Irrigation #SentinelFertigation #FarmYields #Nitrogen #FarmEfficiency #NitrogenSavings

Liquid insecticides application in corn seed fields with AccuRail in Cordoba, Argentina. Hi, everyone! Today we want to share with you another achievement made possible thanks to our AccuRail. Yesterday we applied pure insecticide at an injection rate of 5 L/h directly with the water flow, thus achieving 300 L/ha without the need of a mixing tank. Take a look at this video showing some highlights of the process. #CTI #ValleyIrrigation #AgTech #SmartAG #cornseed #PrecisionAgriculture #SustainableAgriculture
