“…Also, summerfallowing practices lead to a fast decomposition of soil organic matter, leading to depletion of soil carbon over the long term [44], and possesses risks of soil erosion and denitrification [45]. Small plot field experiments have demonstrated that the grain yield of durum wheat grown following summerfallow is higher than when grown on stubble lands [42,46,47]. Similarly, the data from 361,683 durum wheat growers recorded at the SCIC database showed that during 2001-2015, durum wheat grown on summerfallow had an average grain yield of 2.54 t ha −1 , which was 7.5% greater than those grown on stubble ( Figure 7).…”

The global demands for various grains, including durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. subsp. durum (Desf.) Husn.), are expected to increase substantially in the coming years, due to the ever-growing human population’s needs for food, feed, and fuel. Thus, providing consistent or increased durum grain to the world market is one of the priorities for policy-makers, researchers, and farmers. What are the major achievements in agronomic advancement for durum wheat cultivation in recent decades? How might the current cropping systems be improved to increase crop yield and quality and improve resource use efficiencies while minimizing input costs and decreasing negative impact on the environment? Canada is one of the major durum wheat producers in the world, as Canada contributes about 50% to global trade of durum grain. Canada’s research achievements in durum wheat might serve as a guide for advancing the cultivation of the crop in other regions/countries on the planet. This review summarizes the major Canadian research findings in the aspects of durum wheat agronomics during the period 2001 to 2017 years. It highlights the main advancements in seeding and tillage, crop rotation and diversification, and use of pulse-induced microbiomes to improve soil health and feedback mechanisms. The genetic gain and breeding for resistance against abiotic and biotic stresses are discussed. Finally, we identified the main constraints and suggested some near-term research priorities. The research findings highlighted in this review will be of use for other areas on the planet to increase durum wheat productivity, improve soil fertility and health, and enhance long-term sustainability.
