Jessica A. Torrion; Robert N. Stougaard Crop Science 2017. doi:10.2135/cropsci2016.12.1032
Other claims from this paper (10)
- Intervention effect Yield was lower with 100ET.FL than other irrigation treatments.
- Association Cultivar yield responses to irrigation were similar.
- Intervention effect Irrigation had no impact on harvest index.
- Intervention effect Irrigation improved grain test weight.
- Association Falling number varied by cultivar.
- Intervention effect Falling number generally decreased with irrigation, significantly in 100ET, 66ET and 100ET.MM.
- Intervention effect Irrigation improved yield, particularly in the hot dry year.
- Recommendation Irrigation could end before grain fill completion without affecting yield or quality.
- Recommendation At least one irrigation event during grain fill was inferred necessary for optimal yield in this environment.
- Recommendation The authors recommend identifying adaptive cultivars for reduced irrigation or changing weather.
