Sentence examples for rainfed yield from inspiring English sources

Figure 4 provides a summary of the drivers of EU aggregate rainfed yield levels and projected shifts under climate change.

However, once rainfed yield levels increase due to greater in-crop rainfall (2014/15 and 2015/16), irrigation was no longer necessary.

In 80% of the cases, the respective SI applications would give 2.75, 2.7 and 2.95 t ha−1, of the long-term average rainfed yield of 2.1 t ha−1, respectively.

To begin to explore this issue we plot country-level changes in rainfed cropland grid cell area (cropland in cells assigned the potential rainfed yield on the cropland suitability layer) versus the projected change in average annual water yield on rainfed cropland grid cells (Figure 3).

The irrigation water use efficiency (IWUE) or ratio of the difference between irrigated and rainfed yield to the amount of irrigation water applied was estimated.

Fig. 7 Regressions of average rainfed yield (kg/ha) on the coefficient of variation for a Andhra Pradesh, b Gujarat, c Karnataka, and d Maharashtra.

Figure 10 Irrigated and rainfed yields by region.

Rainfed yields increase with dd and the interaction dd × rainfall, but decrease with rainfall (Eq. 2).

Figure 11 Irrigated and rainfed yields by crop types for selected regions.

Fig. 6 Simulated rainfed yields for the period 1980 2010 across India: a average yield, b the coefficient of variation (CV) of yield, and c average annual rainfall (mm).

To examine differences between the irrigated and rainfed yields by crops, now consider Figure 11, which shows differences between the irrigated and rainfed yields for six crop categories for the major crop producer countries of USA, EU, China, and India.
