Impact of planting time soil moisture on cereal crop yield in the Upper Blue Nile Basin: A novel insight towards agricultural water management
TL;DR: In this paper, the sensitivity of crop yield and production to initial soil moisture conditions in the Upper Blue Nile Basin (UBNB) of Ethiopia making use of a process-based spatially distributed crop model (DSSAT) linked to a hydrologic model (CREST), and assess the potential of soil moisture management in promoting agricultural outcome.

Next generation agricultural system models and knowledge products: Synthesis and strategy.
TL;DR: This strategy is designed to facilitate a transition from the current, primarily supply-driven approach toward a more demand- driven approach that would address key Use Cases where better data, models and knowledge products are seen by end-users as essential to meet their needs.

Climate Trends and Global Crop Production Since 1980
TL;DR: It was found that in the cropping regions and growing seasons of most countries, with the important exception of the United States, temperature trends from 1980 to 2008 exceeded one standard deviation of historic year-to-year variability.
