Sentence examples for crop potential from inspiring English sources

There is a pragmatism too at St James Parkk, as was demonstrated when Ashley accepted Liverpool's £35million bid for Andy Carroll in January 2011, and while it might not take that much to prise out one of the current crop, potential suitors would have to make the Magpies an offer they simply could not refuse.

Farmers in middle and better-off groups cultivated more land and of higher crop potential.

This scenario represents a preliminary regional analysis of the energy crop potential in terms of theoretically available conversion areas.

The future bioenergy crop potential depends on (1) changes in the food system (food demand, agricultural technology), (2) political stability and investment security, (3) biodiversity conservation, (4) avoidance of long carbon payback times from deforestation, and (5) energy crop yields.

We therefore focused on recent studies that explicitly report area and yield data underlying their bio-energy crop potential estimates.

However, if yields of food and energy crops should grow significantly faster than assumed here, the energy crop potential would also be substantially larger [ 11,10,SOM].

▶ Global bio-energy crop potentials in 2050 may be 44 133 EJ/yr.

Despite their completely different methodologies, both studies found an almost identical range of global bio-energy crop potentials of ≈30 120 EJ/yr.

Table 2 reports estimates global bio-energy crop potentials derived as arithmetic mean of minimum, maximum and intermediate estimates of these three studies.

van Vuuren et al. [ 23 ] calculated bio-energy crop potentials on abandoned farmland and natural grasslands, assuming accessibility factors of 75% for abandoned farmland and 50% for natural grasslands.

A third recent study by van Vuuren et al. [ 23 ] used the IMAGE model to calculate global bio-energy crop potentials, thereby considering constraints such as soil degradation and water scarcity.
