Impact of diverse production systems on yield stability and environmental adaptability of wheat and barley
a study based on long-term field experiments
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft
Short description
The objective of this project is to contribute to a deeper understanding of the impact of diverse production systems on the yield stability and environmental adaptability of winter wheat and winter barley. In particular, the proposed project aims to systematically identify the complex GxExM interactions in diverse production systems and will provide new insight into the long-term benefits and drawbacks that distinct agricultural management treatments – in particular crop rotation and fertilisation – have on the yield stability and environmental adaptability of winter wheat and winter barley.
