Working Document Series Open Access Relationship between grain yield and Fusarium head blight in soft red winter wheat as influenced by cultivar resistance L. V. Madden · A. P. Pierce · J. D. Salgado · M. W. Wallhead Fusarium Head Blight (FHB) is a serious disease in all wheatgrowing areas in the world. FHB affects wheat by reducing yield and grain quality. Our objective is to characterize the relationship between FHB and grain yield. Three soft red wi… RUF-34578 2010 CC BY 4.0 7 Sep 2015
Working Document Series Open Access Linkages between crop residues, termite prevalence, crop lodging and subsequent crop yield under conservation agriculture in Zimbabwe E. F. Mutsamba · I. Nyagumbo Farmers believe that addition of residues to fields in conservation agriculture (CA) attract termites hence increase lodging, although they are beliefs that termites prefer feeding on dry matter and leave the crop. This study carried out i… RUF-34415 2010 CC BY 4.0 20 Aug 2015
Working Document Series Open Access Assessment of Climate change Impact on Sorghum Productivity in Sudan M. Muna Elhag Water rather than land is the limiting factor for crop production in Sudan. More than 80 percent of sorghum, which is the major stable food crop in the country, is grown in the rainfed subsector. This paper reports on a study of the impact… RUF-32866 2012 CC BY 4.0 19 May 2014
