      Bonelli, Lucas Emmanuel; Monzon, Juan Pablo; Cerrudo, Aníbal Alejandro; Rizzalli, Roberto H.; Andrade, Fernando Hector (Elsevier, 2016-11)
      Delaying maize (Zea mays L.) sowing date can diminish grain yields through reductions in the number, size and activity of growing grains (sink strength) and/or reductions in the assimilate supply (source capacity) to grains ...
    • Maize–soybean intensification alternatives for the Pampas 

      Monzón, Juan Pablo; Mercau, Jorge Luis; Andrade, José Francisco; Caviglia, Octavio; Cerrudo, Aníbal Alejandro; Cirilo, Alfredo Gabriel; Vega, Claudia Rosa Cecilia; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Calviño, P.A. (2014-06)
      Cultivating multiple crops as a land use alternative could increase system productivity and sustainability, providing options to soybean monoculture for the Argentinean Pampas. This study evaluates the performance of ...
    • N and S concentration and stoichiometry in soybean during vegetative growth: Dynamics of indices for diagnosing the S status 

      Divito, Guillermo Adrián; Echeverria, Hernan Eduardo; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Sadras, Victor Oscar (Elsevier, 2016-11)
      Information regarding the pattern of sulphur (S) accumulation in shoots is scarce for field crops and few comprehensive analysis were performed on N:S stoichiometry. Particularly, the need to study the patterns of uptake, ...
    • Nitrogen deficiency in maize fields of the Southern Pampas does not affect kernel number but reduces weight per kernel 

      Moisés Domínguez, Clara; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Monzón, Juan Pablo; Reussi Calvo, Nahuel Ignacio; Cerrudo, Aníbal Alejandro (Elsevier, 2024-05)
      Nitrogen (N) requirement of maize has been increasing over the past decades, but there has been a lack ofadjustment in fertilization management practices across different regions in Argentina. The higher N requirementin ...
    • Nitrous oxide emissions in maize on mollisols in the Pampas of Argentina 

      Picone, Liliana; Bayer, Cimélio; Videla, Cecilia; Rizzalli, Roberto Héctor; Casanave Ponti, Sheila Mailén; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Garcia, Fernando (Elsevier, 2021-01-14)
      The objectives of this study were i) to measure the soil N2O fluxes in a cropping system currently adopted by farmers of the region (FP), and in an ecologically intensified cropping system (EI) over two consecutive maize ...
    • Potential for crop production increase in Argentina through closure of existing yield gaps 

      Aramburu Merlos, Fernando; Monzon, Juan Pablo; Mercau, Jorge Luis; Taboada, Miguel Angel; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Hall, Antonio Juan; Jobbagy Gampel, Esteban Gabriel; Cassman, Kenneth G.; Grassini, Patricio (Elsevier, 2015-12)
      Favorable climate and soils for rainfed crop production, together with a relatively low population density, results in 70–90% of Argentina grain production being exported. No assessment to date has tried to estimate the ...
    • Predicting maize phenology: intercomparison of functions for developmental response to temperature 

      Kumudini, S.; Andrade, Fernando Hector; Boote, K.J.; Brown, G.A.; Dzotsi, K.A.; Edmeades, G.O.; Gocken, T.; Goodwin, M.; Halter, A.L.; Hammer, G.L.; Hatfield, J.L.; Jones, J.W.; Kemanian, A.R.; Kim, Sung Hyun; Kiniry, J.; Lizaso, J.I.; Nendel, C.; Nielsen, R.L.; Parent, B.; Stӧckle, C.O.; Tardieu, F.; Thomison, P.R.; Timlin, D.J.; Vyn, T.J.; Wallach, D.; Yang, H.S.; Tollenaar, Matthijs (American Society of Agronomy, 2014-12)
      Accurate prediction of phenological development in maize (Zea mays L.) is fundamental to determining crop adaptation and yield potential. A number of thermal functions are used in crop models, but their relative precision ...
