Potential for crop production increase in Argentina through closure of existing yield gaps

Assessing Yield Gaps and Risks in Cropping Systems of Southern Brazil

“…This aligns with reports from Argentina and the USA, where wheat gaps also reflected management limitations (Merlos et al. 2015; Edreira et al. 2017).…”

“…Wheat exhibited large management gaps (51%-57%), linked to low investments in fertilisation and harvest losses from excessive spring rainfall. This aligns with reports from Argentina and the USA, where wheat gaps also reflected management limitations (Merlos et al 2015;Edreira et al 2017). Maize showed the widest gaps, both water-and management-related, reflecting its vulnerability when grown as a second crop under low temperatures or in rainfed conditions (Figure 5).…”

Single and double crop systems in the Argentine Pampas: Environmental determinants of annual grain yield

“…), or technology. However, this result was consistent with previous investigations on yield gaps in the Argentine Pampas (Aramburu Merlos et al, 2014;Monzon et al, 2013).…”

Conception of Improved Blackgram (Vigna mungo L.) Production Technology and its Propagation among Farmers for the Development of a Sustainable Seeds Production Strategy

“…On the basis of five blocks in this blackgram seed production study, an average technology gap of 26.26% was recorded, which ranged from 15.41% in the Annavasal block to 37.37% in the Thiruvarembur block. Hence, it can be inferred that the awareness and adoption of improved varieties with recommended scientific production technologies have increased during the advancement of the study period [48][49][50]. These findings are consistent with the results of the study carried out by [51][52][53].…”
