A new study suggests that decades of reported gains in crop yields from plant breeding may be significantly overstated, ...

The production of oilseed crops, including species such as camelina, canola, and winter oilseed rape, is increasingly pivotal to meeting global demands for renewable biofuels, food, and industrial ...

The imperative to optimise irrigation systems is driven by growing water scarcity and the need to enhance agricultural productivity amidst climate variability. Modern irrigation practices now ...

Researchers from South Dakota State University presented a high-tech system to help farmers optimize crop yields while lowering costs at the 2025 annual meeting of the American Society of Agricultural ...

Minnesota crop adviser encourages farmers to reduce input expenses while maintaining yields through strategic cost-cutting and soil testing.

For four days this past week, more than 100 crop scouts sampled 2,000 to 3,000 fields in seven Midwest states as part of the one-of-a-kind Pro Farmer Crop Tour. Building on the boots-on-the-ground ...

August is typically the month when we get the first producer survey yield estimates from USDA, as well as yield projections from major private firms. This yield data is gathered in different formats ...

In this webinar, Wenguang Liang will discuss the innovations that are transforming the landscape of membrane protein ...

Researchers at Cornell University in the U.S. have developed a novel optimization model for agrivoltaic site design and benefits, which was demonstrated using irrigation-optimization relative to ...

USDA’s final look at crop production for 2023 caught the commodity markets by surprise. The agency increased the final yield estimates for both corn and soybeans, and as a result, prices plummeted on ...

Researchers in Sweden developed a new methodology to optimize agrivoltaic systems across Europe, showing that row pitch, system type, and panel orientation must be tailored to local climate, crops, ...
