Evidence for increasing global wheat yield potential
Wheat is the most widely grown food crop, with 761 Mt produced globally in 2020. To meet the expected grain demand by mid-century, wheat breeding strategies must continue to improve upon yield-advancing physiological traits, regardless of climate change impacts. Here, the best performing doubled haploid (DH) crosses with an increased canopy photosynthesis from wheat field experiments in the literature were extrapolated to the global scale with a …
Enhancing adaptive capacity to manage climate risk in agriculture through community-led climate information centres
Using participatory action research methods, we co-developed climate risk management approaches with participating farmers as part of a large project in India on climate adaptation to climate change in Asia (ACCA). The key components of this work involved village level meteorological data recording and reporting, formation and development of farmer climate clubs, on-farm participatory research testing a range of sowing and irrigation practices in…
Design of sustainable dryland crop rotations require value judgements and efficient trade-offs
In agriculture, sustainability is framed as an aspiration to achieve multiple goals including positive production, environmental and social outcomes. These aspirations include: increasing production of nutritious food; minimising risk and maximising resilience in response to climate variability, fluctuating markets and extreme weather events; minimising impacts on global warming by reducing emissions; efficiently using limited resources; minimisi…
Simplicity on the far side of complexity: Optimizing nitrogen for wheat in increasingly variable rainfall environments
The increasingly chaotic nature of rainfall in semi-arid climates challenges crop growers to balance nitrogen fertiliser inputs for both food security and environmental imperatives. Too little nitrogen restricts yields and runs down soil organic carbon, while too much nitrogen is economically wasteful and environmentally harmful. The degree to which crop-water and crop-nitrogen processes combine to drive yields of rainfed wheat crops is not well …
Beyond the plot: Technology extrapolation domains for scaling out agronomic science
Ensuring an adequate food supply in systems that protect environmental quality and conserve natural resources requires productive and resource-efficient cropping systems on existing farmland. Meeting this challenge will be difficult without a robust spatial framework that facilitates rapid evaluation and scaling-out of currently available and emerging technologies. Here we develop a global spatial framework to delineate 'technology extrapolation …
Governing through representatives of the community: A case study on farmer organizations in rural Australia
Participatory approaches to address climate change: Perceived issues affecting the ability of South East Queensland graziers to adapt to future climates
Yield gap analysis with local to global relevance—A review
Yields of crops must increase substantially over the coming decades to keep pace with global food demand driven by population and income growth. Ultimately global food production capacity will be limited by the amount of land and water resources available and suitable for crop production, and by biophysical limits on crop growth. Quantifying food production capacity on every hectare of current farmland in a consistent and transparent manner is ne…
