In Australia, a land subject to high annual variation in grain yields, farmers find it challenging adjust crop production inputs yield prospects. Scientists have responded this problem by developing Decision Support Systems, yet the scientists’ enthusiasm for these tools has not been reciprocated farm managers or their advisers, who mostly continue avoid use. Preceding papers series described FARMSCAPE intervention: new paradigm decision support that had significant effects on and advisers....
Water-use efficiency (WUE) is defined here as the ratio of grain yield (kg/ha) to crop water use by evapotranspiration (mm). Much WUE literature has focussed on either determination boundary attainable for any amount available water, or practicalities measurement a crop. While these are important issues defining gap between attained and potential WUE, little progress been reported clarifying components that contribute this how it can be bridged. To address questions, we analysed 334 wheat...
The Plant Modelling Framework (PMF) is a software framework for creating models that represent the plant components of farm system in agricultural production simulator (APSIM). It next step evolution generic crop templates APSIM, building on and science lessons from past versions capitalising new approaches. PMF contains top-level class provides an interface with APSIM model environment controls other classes model. Other include mid-level Organ, Phenology, Structure Arbitrator specific...
Global food security requires eco-efficient agriculture to produce the required and fiber products concomitant with ecologically efficient use of resources. This eco-efficiency concept is used diagnose state agricultural production in China (irrigated wheat-maize double-cropping systems), Zimbabwe (rainfed maize Australia wheat systems). More than 3,000 surveyed crop yields these three countries were compared against simulated grain at farmer-specified levels nitrogen (N) input. Many...
Since COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) was first identified in the human population, it has had immediate and significant effects on peoples' health worldwide economy. In absence of a vaccine, control virus involved limiting its spread through restrictions movement people, goods services. This led to unprecedented impacts labour availability, provision services, value chains, markets. Against backdrop measures, this article summarises quantitative qualitative assessments impacts, adaptations,...
To feed a growing world population in the coming decades, agriculture must strive to reduce gap between yields that are currently achieved by farmers (Ya) and those potentially attainable rainfed farming systems (Yw). The first step towards reducing yield gaps (Yg) is obtain realistic estimates of their magnitude spatial temporal variability. In this paper we describe new assessment framework. framework uses statistical cropping area data, remotely sensed system simulation GIS mapping...
