Advances in Cultivation Techniques for Increasing Crop Yield

Dear Colleagues,

With the growing challenges of population growth and climate change on food security, improving crop yield has become increasingly crucial. This topic focuses on presenting advanced research regarding integrated cultivation techniques to enhance crop productivity. We welcome submissions investigating excellent cultivars, optimized agronomic practices, including precision nutrient management, efficient irrigation, optimal planting density and scheduling, and rational use of plant growth regulators. Particular consideration will be given to studies demonstrating cost-effective and practical integrated management strategies, especially those addressing synergistic quality enhancement and abiotic stress. However, proposals featuring high-cost or operationally complex approaches will receive lower priority. This collection aims to bridge the gap between experimental research and field application, ultimately supporting sustainable intensification of global crop production.
