Mar 28, 2024 · Greening of yards and wheat fields is about two weeks earlier than normal this year. Farmers become actively engaged in many field activities after green-up. One of these activities is fertilizer application. Because wheat is a grass crop, it requires large amounts of nitrogen for optimal yields.

Selection for particular stay-green traits, combinations of traits, and/or molecular markers associated with the traits could enhance genetic progress toward stay-green wheats with higher, more stable yield in both well-watered and water-limited conditions.

Jan 22, 2020 · Senescence is the final stage in wheat development and the point when nutrients become remobilised from the plant into the developing grain. Theoretically, delaying senescence, or ‘staygreen’ traits, are associated with extending photosynthetic duration, potentially to increasing availability of resources for grain filling.

The status of Kansas's 2024-25 winter wheat crop is variable. Some early September precipitation allowed growers in parts of the state to plant early, and this crop resulted in good stand establishment and large biomass production. ... Waiting until closer to spring green-up to make topdress N applications on these soils will help minimize the ...

2 days ago · Winter wheat conditions are a mixed bag in the largest producing state in the U.S. Western Kansas farmer Clay Schemm says his winter wheat crop is starting to green up. “It’s getting after it. ... The latest crop progress and condition report from USDA says 51 percent of winter wheat is rated good-to-excellent. Twenty-seven percent have ...

CGIAR-related varieties are now planted on nearly half the world’s wheat lands overall. Despite the benefits of the Green Revolution, there were major concerns and consequences. More intensive farming degraded soils, depleted aquifers and brought other negative environmental consequences in some regions.

1 day ago · A study shows how manipulating epigenetic variation in wheat can reveal valuable heritable traits for crop improvement. By using partial mutagenesis on the MET1-1 gene, the team uncovered potential for creating climate-resilient crops.
