Maximum Attainable Wheat Yield and Resource‐Use Efficiency in the Southern Great Plains (2015, background): “The yields exceeding 15 Mg ha–1 reported by Armour et al. (2004) were obtained from feed wheat cultivars, whereas wheat grown in high yielding regions of Western Europe can be classed as soft red winter wheat (Curtis et al., 2002).”
A CRITICAL ANALYSIS OF THE AGRONOMIC AND ECONOMIC SUSTAINABILITY OF ORGANIC COFFEE PRODUCTION (2005, background): “For instance, average wheat yields in Northwest Europe are now regularly exceeding 8 t ha−1 against 2 t ha−1 at the beginning of the twentieth century when farmyard manure was still the main external source of plant nutrients (Austin et al., 1989; Curtis et al., 2002).”
Crop losses due to diseases and their implications for global food production losses and food security (2012, unknown): “…improve wheat yields includes old and newer techniques such as conventional Agricultural intensification Main production objective breeding, biotechnology, interspecific and intergeneric hybridization, and basic studies of the physiology of the hostpathogen/pest interactions (Curtis et al. 2002).”
