An international team of agronomists is calling for a new approach to estimate crop yield potential and gaps—information that is critical in planning how to meet growing food demand. University of ...

Agronomists question statistical methods used to predict yield potential and 'yield gaps' for major crops. In some cases, yield potential is overestimated, while in others it can be underestimated. It ...

Yield potential is defined as the yield of a well-adapted cultivar when grown without water and nutrient limitations and with weeds, diseases, and insect pests effectively controlled 1,2. Under these ...

Accurate spatial information on yield potential and gaps is key to determine crop production potential. Although statistical methods are widely used to estimate these parameters at regional to global ...
