- Method / resource The revised wheat yield prediction did not significantly improve agronomic optimum nitrogen rate determination relative to existing algorithms.
- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation increased maize grain yield over rain-fed treatment.
- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation increased maize water use efficiency over rain-fed treatment.
- Intervention effect Deficit irrigation increased maize nitrogen use efficiency over rain-fed treatment.
- Intervention effect Split nitrogen application typically increased maize nitrogen use efficiency.

- Intervention effect Mid-season foliar nitrogen had potential to improve maize nitrogen use efficiency.
- Association Significant leaf burn after foliar nitrogen reduced maize grain yield.
- Intervention effect Preplant ammoniacal nitrogen tended to increase maize grain yield under rain-fed conditions.
- Intervention effect Preplant UAN performed at least as well as ammonium sulfate for maize grain yield when nitrogen loss was minimized.
