China and other rapidly developing economies face the dual challenge of substantially increasing yields cereal grains while at same time reducing very substantial environmental impacts intensive agriculture. We used a model-driven integrated soil–crop system management approach to develop maize production that achieved mean 13.0 t ha −1 on 66 on-farm experimental plots—nearly twice yield current farmers’ practices—with no increase in N fertilizer use. Such systems represent priority for...
Understanding yield potentials and exploitable gaps in current intensive maize (Zea mays L.) production is essential order to increase grain yields meet future food requirements amid strong competition for limited resources. In this study, we used simulations with the Hybrid-Maize Model (http://www.hybridmaize.unl.edu/), highest recorded published literature, field experiments, farm survey data assess four agro-ecological regions of China. 50 high-yield sites across China from 1990 2009,...
Abstract Population growth and economic development in China has increased the demand for food animal feed, raising questions regarding China’s future maize production self-sufficiency. Here, we address this challenge by combining data-driven projections with a machine learning method on data from 402 stations, 87 field experiments across China. Current yield would be roughly doubled implementation of optimal planting density management. In 2030 s, estimate 52% improvement through dense soil...
Although the goal of doubling food demand while simultaneously reducing agricultural environmental damage has become widely accepted, dominant paradigm still considers high yields and reduced greenhouse gas (GHG) intensity to be in conflict with one another. Here, we achieved an increase maize yield 70% on-farm experiments by closing gap evaluated trade-off between grain yield, nitrogen (N) fertilizer use, GHG emissions. Based on two groups N application six locations for 16 site-years,...
Abstract Climate change can reduce crop yields and thereby threaten food security. The current measures used to adapt climate involve avoiding crops yield decrease, however, the limitations of such due water other resources scarcity have not been well understood. Here, we quantify how sensitivity maize availability has increased because shift toward longer-maturing varieties during last three decades in Chinese Maize Belt (CMB). We report that modern, extended growing period by an average 8...
Abstract Increasing grain zinc (Zn) concentration of cereals for minimizing Zn malnutrition in two billion people represents an important global humanitarian challenge. Grain field-grown wheat at the scale ranges from 20.4 to 30.5 mg kg −1 , showing a solid gap biofortification target human health (40 ). Through group field experiments, we found that low was not closely linked historical replacements varieties during Green Revolution, but greatly aggravated by phosphorus (P) overuse or...
Significance Smallholder farmers in China tend to overuse N fertilizer as an “insurance” avoid yield loss. Better management can be achieved but lack resources adopt advanced technologies that improve use efficiency. Our study proposes a simplified effective approach without sampling. This new based on steady-state balance could significantly reduce while maintaining or even increasing yields compared the local farmers’ practice. Demonstrations Chinese cereal production indicate potential of...
Investigating critical N concentration, that is, the minimum concentration necessary to achieve maximum growth, provides insights into nutrition and can serve as a guide improving agricultural practices regulations. Our objectives were evaluate dilution curves for deficient, optimal, excess added determine curve winter wheat ( Triticum aestivum L.) in North China Plain (NCP) based on 15 fertilization experiments with three six rates. The supplements significantly affected curve, increased...
Relatively low nitrogen (N) efficiency and heavy environmental costs caused by excessive N fertilizer applications with outdated fertilization techniques are current cultivation production problems maize among smallholders in North China Plain. Although many studies have examined agronomical strategies for improving yields use, the integrated effects of these measures associated not well understood. We conducted a 2-year field study two densities (67,500 plants ha-1, which was similar to...
Elevating soil water content (SWC) through irrigation was one of the simple mitigation measures to improve crop resilience heat stress. The response leaf function such as photosynthetic capacity based on chlorophyll fluorescence during has received limited attention, especially in field condition. 2-yr experiment with three treatments (control treatment (CK); high temperature (H); together elevating SWC (HW)) carried out grain filling two maize hybrids at a typical station North China Plain....
Introduction Senecavirus A (SVA) is a highly contagious virus that causes vesicular disease in pigs. At present, laboratory detection methods, such as isolation and polymerase chain reaction (PCR), required precision instruments qualified personnel, making them unsuitable for point-of-care tests (POCT). Fortunately, the emergence of CRISPR/Cas system has provided new opportunities fast efficient pathogen detection. Methods This study successfully developed precise sensitive platform...
