Abstract:

Abstract Maize refers to one of the major food crops worldwide. Its yield has a direct effect on global food security. Moreover, cultivated lands in the world have been undergoing serious degradation. In the present study, field experiments were performed in the middle of Jilin, China. A novel maize cultivating method, combining drip irrigation under film mulch cultivation and high photosynthetic efficient cultivation, is presented. NUE, WUE, accumulated temperature, plant growth and yield were determined in high photosynthetic efficient cultivation with drip irrigation under mulch and with th

Abstract:

Maize, in particular, is of crucial importance in the country but face similar issues where actual yields fall well short of their potential. This study aims to explore the technological gap in maize cultivation specifically within Assam. To address this, research was purposefully conducted in Sonitpur district of Assam.From an aggregate of 122 shareholders, a sample of 80 shareholders was selected as respondents of the study by following a Random Sampling Technique. The data were collected with the help of a pre tested schedule from four villages of Sonitpur district. The study revealed that

Abstract:

To improve maize production, efforts must be doubled to expand the current extent of land suitability profiling. Lingering questions hinged on whether maize is presently grown on land that supports its optimal growth and if farmers’ knowledge of their farmland suitability informs their decision to cultivate improved maize varieties. However, attaining the level of food self-subsistence largely requires optimum land use and the adoption of innovative advancement to double farmers' yields. Unfortunately, land suitability profiling and farmers’ cultivation of Improved Maize Varieties (IMV) still

Abstract:

About 62% of the maize produced in developing countries is cultivated manually owing to limited access to appropriate technology. Available technologies perform a single operation, necessitating farmers to buy multiple implements, which is expensive. In this study, an ox-drawn tool integrating a plough, planter and cultivator for small-scale maize farming was developed and its performance evaluated. Planting and cultivating units were designed and fabricated for assembly onto an existing standard ox-plough beam. The integrated tool was tested in the field to assess the effectiveness and effici

Abstract:

The paper discusses the adoption and spread of maize cultivation in the territory of present-day Serbia. A hundred years had passed from the first mention of maize growing to the moment when maize became the second most important cereal grain, and in some parts of the country the most important. The adoption of maize production was profound and lasting. It changed the basic nutrition of the majority of the population. By the end of the 19th century, maize fields represented 31 percent of cultivated land in Serbia. Increased production of maize resulted in surpluses and export.

With limited financial, material and labour resources, agricultural production has to optimize technology solutions for important crop cultivation. “Green” economy current trends recommend using soil treatment and crop tending technologies that are able to minimize doses of organic and mineral fertilizers applied, to reduce the degree to which plants have been treated with chemicals. This will generally improve the environmental safety of farming.

Energy transition strategies in Germany have led to an expansion of energy crop cultivation in landscape, with silage maize as most valuable feedstock. The changes in the traditional cropping systems, with increasing shares of maize, raised concerns about the sustainability of agricultural feedstock production regarding threats to soil health. However, spatially explicit data about silage maize cultivation are missing; thus, implications for soil cannot be estimated in a precise way.

Fodder maize cultivation under low mountain conditions in Central Europe presents obstacles for organic dairy farmers; low temperatures and high precipitation values in spring delay the juvenile development of maize, which leads to lower and fluctuating yields.

Rice, a cash crop, was grown in the alluvial valley bottom (fadama) of an inland valley region of central Nigeria. The main staple crop, maize, was grown on the adjacent upland areas. Both oxen and manual labour were used for initial cultivation (ploughing and harrowing for rice and ridging for maize). Times spent were 94·3 and 315·2 h/ha respectively for rice and 28·2 and 65·5 h/ha for maize.

Abstract:

Maize (Zea mays), first domesticated in Southern Mexico about 9,000 years ago, has grown to be a major global staple, playing an especially crucial role in Tanzania. Introduced to East Africa by Portuguese traders in the 16th century, maize gradually became part of Tanzania’s agricultural system, replacing traditional cereals like sorghum, pearl millet, and finger millet in both cultivation and consumption. During the colonial era the production was relatively low. Since independence in 1961, acreage expanded significantly from 790,000 hectares to 4.4 million hectares by 2021, and production i

Maize cultivation has many advantages, such as: high yield, strong stability, great potential for increasing yield, strong disaster resistance, wide application range, and high economic benefits. It plays an important role in food production, and it is also due to the growth of animal husbandry and the food processing industry.

La Identification of maize phytoliths from the Preceramic Vegas and Formative period Real Alto sites, Guayas Province, Ecuador, has raised the issue of the antiquity of maize in Ecuador. This paper reviews how maize is identified using phytoliths and addresses criticisms of this technique. Our reexamination of the original Vegas and Real Alto samples using Piperno's three-dimensional variant method confirms the presence of maize in western Ecuador by at least 5000 B.C. Remains of charred maize from other sites suggest that more than one race was being utilized by the Formative period.
