Effects of Soil Type, Vertical Root Distribution and Precipitation on Grain Yield of Winter Wheat

Effects of Soil Type, Vertical Root Distribution and Precipitation on Grain Yield of Winter Wheat

In Abashiri in eastern Hokkaido, Japan, grain yields of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L. cv. Hokushin) in the western area, with umbric andosol or dystric cambisol soil types, are lower and unstable compared to those in the eastern area, with mostly haplic andosol soil type. The aim of this study...
