A pioneering study introduces a functional data analysis (FDA) methodology to model the relationship between environmental factors and crop yields in year-round agriculture. Designed for crops like ...

A team has revamped the popular crop growth simulation software BioCro, making it a more user-friendly and efficient way to predict crop yield. The updated version, BioCro II, allows modelers to use ...

Inside dozens of bankers boxes, stacked high in a storage locker in New York City, Cynthia Rosenzweig has stashed the work of decades: Legal pads covered in blue-inked cursive with doodles in the ...

Crop nutrition and quality formation are complex processes influenced by genotype, environment, and management practices.

While farmers have cultivated crops for millennia using intuition and experience, today's agriculture increasingly relies on data-driven approaches to maximize yields while minimizing environmental ...

The integration of bioinformatics, machine learning and multi-omics has transformed soil science, providing powerful tools to ...

The Earth is heating up. The effects of human-caused global climate change are becoming more and more apparent as we see more record-breaking heat waves, intense droughts, shifts in rainfall patterns ...
