Interests: the effect of agrotechnical factors on the productivity, quality physiology, and phenology parameters of the sunflower; optimalization of sunflower production parameters (hybrid specific technologies); examination of the most important field crops (winter wheat, winter barley, triticale, maize, sunflower, soybean, rapeseed) based on different aspects (sowing technology, nutrient supply, plant protection, biological bases, etc.)
Interests: variety and site-specific agrotechnical models in different field crops (wheat, maize, sunflower, colza etc.); investigation of nutrient and water regime and supply in field crops; abiotic and biotic stress effects in cereals, oil crops, and pulses; alternative crop models; the effects of ecological, agrotechnical, and genetic factors on crop product quality; stress effects on the quality of field crops; In situ nondestructive crop physiological parameters and yield quality and quantity of field crops
Interests: delimitation of soil patches and management zones using a GIS database based on satellite and UAV-based remote sensing and contact and non-contact soil scanner data. Performing plant physiological examinations based on UAV and satellite remote sensing, performing statistical analyzes. Numerical statistically based year effect studies in small plots and field experiments, for precision crop decision support research.
Interests: agrotechnical factors of the winter wheat production, physiological parameters, plant protection, yield and quality and the relationship of these elements with the genotype and the crop year. Another research area is the agrotechnical factors and the year effect relationship with the quality parameters of different crops. Statistical modeling and correlation studies
Interests: examination of water management of chernozem soil in maize, winter wheat and peas. Biological and agrotechnical factors of plants and crop production (yield, LAI, chlorophyll content of leaves and interaction of agrotechnical factors). I’m involved in 36 years old long-term experiment, I examine correlation of plant production and agrotechnical elements (crop-rotation, irrigation, plant density) and environmental factors (precipitation, temperature) and other different plants (winter wheat, sunflower) nutrient, variety and plant protection experiment.
Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The purpose of global plant production systems is to produce plant products that meet the increasing demand of feeding the world’s population, as well as meet the expectations of industry and other processors. Global environmental changes have become much more significant during the last decade. Researchers and producers both must face greater challenges generated by new circumstances resulting from global climatic change. Effective production can only be ensured through the optimalization of physiological and agronomical factors. Plant production professionals face and fight challenges and difficulties caused by soil and climatic anomalies on a daily basis. In order to increase research potential, we need a more precise and exact knowledge of plant physiological and agronomical production factors.
The purpose of the present publication is to introduce scientific results that enable the exploration of production factors with regard to all determining aspects that enable the definition of professional solutions to increase the efficiency of plant production. This volume includes publications that show producers solution possibilities to moderate abiotic effects that cause lower quality and quantity production results and enable effective global food production potential, as well as meet the expectations of sustainable soil cultivation systems. The international publication of these results will allow researchers to introduce prominent research results on a wide scale and to increase the efficiency of global plant production.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Applied Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2400 CHF (Swiss Francs).
