Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation The DSSAT-CSM-CERES model fairly simulated the overall wheat yield (grain and biomass).
- Intervention effect Delayed sowing on 5 and 20 December was a better adaptive strategy to climate change.
- Intervention effect Varieties VL-829 and VL-907 were more capable than the other two varieties to eliminate the harmful impacts of climate change.
- Intervention effect Increasing irrigations from one to four nullified the impact of climate change on wheat.
- Intervention effect Increasing irrigations from one to four gave a yield increase of 4.02-5.00 % for varieties.
- Intervention effect One extra irrigation (total four) increased wheat yield by 4.93- 10.88% across sowing dates.
- Intervention effect One extra irrigation (total four) increased wheat yield by 6.88- 7.84% across varieties.
- Intervention effect The positive impact of irrigation declined under projected climate scenarios for the 2050s and 2080s.
- Recommendation The authors recommend delayed sowing of VL-829 and VL-907 up to 20 December with irrigations increased from two to five as best adaptive strategies for the region.
