The increasing availability of satellite data at higher spatial, temporal and spectral
resolutions is enabling new applications in agriculture and economic development …

Wheat, rice, maize, and soybean provide two-thirds of human caloric intake. Assessing the
impact of global temperature increase on production of these crops is therefore critical to …

Understanding crop yield and water requirements in response to the future climate at the
local scale is essential to develop more precise and appropriate adaptation strategies. From …

Agricultural systems science generates knowledge that allows researchers to consider
complex problems or take informed agricultural decisions. The rich history of this science …

Predicting the consequences of manipulating genotype (G) and agronomic management (M)

Climate change will have far-reaching impacts on crop, livestock and fisheries production,
and will change the prevalence of crop pests. Many of these impacts are already …

Wheat grain protein concentration is an important determinant of wheat quality for human
nutrition that is often overlooked in efforts to improve crop production. We tested and applied …

Despite evidence from previous case studies showing that agronomic traits partially
determine the resulting yield of different rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties, it remains unclear …
