Description
Applied Crop Physiology provides readers with essential knowledge of how grain crops function at the physiological level. Written by renowned crop scientist Dennis B. Egli, this authoritative text bridges the gap between theoretical plant physiology and practical farm management.
The book covers critical topics including photosynthesis, nutrient uptake, water relations, growth and development, and yield formation. Each chapter explains how physiological processes influence crop performance and how management decisions impact these processes. Readers learn to interpret crop responses to environmental conditions and make informed decisions about planting dates, cultivar selection, fertilizer application, and irrigation timing.
Ideal for students, extension professionals, agronomists, and progressive farmers, this resource enables better understanding of why certain management practices work and how to adapt them to local conditions for improved grain crop productivity.
