Abstract:
SUMMARYDeterminate varieties of Vicia faba are smaller and may require higher plant population densities than their conventional indeterminate counterparts to attain high yields. This hypothesis was examined at the University of Nottingham farm at Sutton Bonington, UK, and at INRA, Dijon, France in 1986 and 1987. The determinate varieties Ticol and TP667 and indeterminate M5.1 and Maris Bead were sown in the spring to give a range of densities of 10–100 plants/m2.Yields generally increased as population density increased. The optimum density for determinate varieties was higher than for indete

We investigated, over 3 seasons, 1973-74 to 1975-76, the responses of 5 selected maize hybrids and 5 sorghum hybrids to applied nitrogen (N) under irrigation on N-deficient, black earth soils in South East Queensland. Five levels of N (0, 60, 120, 180 and 240 kg/ha) were applied as urea at sowing to 5 maize hybrids, XL81, Q739, PQ500, PX50, RX404, at 1 location. The same rates were applied to sorghum hybrids NK212, P846, E57, Goldfinger and Goldrush at another location. Higher grain yields were obtained from maize hybrids XL81 and RX404 than from 4739, PX50 and PQ500. A mean grain yield of 666

Radiation possesses inherent physical characteristics, such as penetrability and radionuclide energy, which enable its widespread applicability in fields such as medicine, industry, environment, security, and research. Advancements in scintillator-based radiation detection technology have led to revolutionary changes by ensuring the safe use and precise measurement of radiation. Nevertheless, certain fields require higher scintillation yields to obtain more refined and detailed results. Therefore, in this study, we explored inorganic scintillators coated with perovskite nanomaterials to detect

Abstract:
Certain fixed-income securities, such as callable bonds and mortgage-backed securities subject to prepayment, typically exhibit negative convexity at low yields and cannot be adequately immunized through duration and convexity-matching alone. To address this residual risk, we examine the concepts of bond tilt and bond agility. We provide explicit calculations and derive several approximation formulas that incorporate higher-order terms. With the help of these methods, we are able to track the price-yield dynamics of callable bonds remarkably well, achieving mean absolute errors below 2.5% acro

Abstract:
Soybean intercropped with corn can produce a high-quality silage, but pods of early maturing soybean varieties usually shatter when harvested, thus reducing the silage protein potential. In 1991 and 1992, an experiment was conducted in Truro, Nova Scotia, and Sussex, New Brunswick, to determine whether later soybean varieties can provide sufficient biomass and protein in intercrops and escape pod losses at harvest. Early, early high protein, medium, late and very late maturing varieties of soybean were grown as monocrops and intercrops with corn. Eight response variables were measured: soybean

Regression analyses of the relationships between yield and time over the last century were conducted for wheat, barley, oats, maize, and rice at a national level and those for the three winter cereals in New South Wales (NSW), Victoria (Vic), South Australia (SA), Western Australia (WA), and Queensland (Qld). The fitted function accounts for the impact of agronomic improvement on yield and the residuals stand for the variability of yield beyond this impact. Another measure of the stability was obtained by considering the residuals as a proportion of actual yield ('relative residuals'). Crops v

Dry matter (DM) yield, in vitro digestibility (DMD%), and nitrogen (N) concentration were determined for 28 cultivars of millet (Echinochloa utilis), hybrid forage sorghum (Sorghum spp.) and maize (Zea mays), under irrigation at Kyabram, Victoria. These summer fodder crops produced large amounts of digestible dry matter (DDM) under intensive irrigated management in northern Victoria, indicating their potential importance for animal production in irrigated warm temperate regions, where pasture dominates the present land use.

Straw nutrients was determined in 1991. Two-row cultivars yielded more straw and less grain than six-row cultivars (P < 0.05). The total yield (i.e., total aboveground dry matter) of two-row cultivars was approximately equal to that of six-row cultivars.

High grain yields for dryland wheat were measured in the first 2 seasons (1985-86), and in 1985, near-optimal water use efficiencies (>18 kg/ha. mm effective rainfall) were obtained.

In locations where soybean rust was not severe, all the fungicides evaluated reduced severity. In locations where soybean rust was severe, applications of triazole and triazole + strobilurin fungicides resulted in lower severity and higher yields compared with other fungicides.

Faba bean (Vicia faba L. minor) is an important grain legume and is widely used as food and feed. It is traditionally used as a spring crop in Central European cropping systems. There is increasing interest in winter faba bean due to a higher yield potential, but limited knowledge of nitrogen (N) yields and nitrogen fixation (NFIX) exists. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to compare N concentrations, N yield of plant fractions, soil mineral N (SMN) and SMN sparing in the soil after harvest, NFIX and N balance of two winter faba bean varieties (Diva and Hiverna) to those of a spring fab
