Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Botany

David J. Midmore mostly deals with Agronomy, Irrigation, Cultivar, Water-use efficiency and Soil water. The various areas that David J. Midmore examines in his Agronomy study include Soil management and Vernalization. His Irrigation research integrates issues from Agroforestry, Fertilizer, Crop, Sowing and Anthesis.

David J. Midmore has researched Cultivar in several fields, including Biotechnology, Lycopersicon and Hybrid. His biological study deals with issues like Crop yield, which deal with fields such as Strip farming, Soil fertility and Soil quality. His work investigates the relationship between Soil salinity and topics such as Aeration that intersect with problems in Horticulture.

His most cited work include:

  • Agronomic modification of resource use and intercrop productivity (157 citations)
  • Aspects of bamboo agronomy (110 citations)
  • Legume Decomposition and Nitrogen Release When Applied as Green Manures to Tropical Vegetable Production Systems (97 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of study are Agronomy, Horticulture, Agroforestry, Irrigation and Botany. As part of one scientific family, he deals mainly with the area of Agronomy, narrowing it down to issues related to the Water content, and often Soil respiration. His Horticulture study incorporates themes from Nutrient and Phenology.

The Agroforestry study combines topics in areas such as Soil conservation, Intercropping, Crop yield and Acacia harpophylla. His studies deal with areas such as Water use and Fertilizer as well as Irrigation. In general Botany study, his work on photoperiodism and Cultivar often relates to the realm of Solanaceae, thereby connecting several areas of interest.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (46.78%)
  • Horticulture (19.31%)
  • Agroforestry (16.74%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2011-2020)?

  • Agronomy (46.78%)
  • Horticulture (19.31%)
  • Irrigation (12.88%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

David J. Midmore focuses on Agronomy, Horticulture, Irrigation, Drip irrigation and Agroforestry. His Agronomy research incorporates themes from Soil water and Vertisol. In Horticulture, David J. Midmore works on issues like Nutrient, which are connected to Hydroponics and Fertilizer.

In the field of Irrigation, his study on Water-use efficiency overlaps with subjects such as Venturi effect. His Agroforestry study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Horticultural crops, Tropics, Tropical horticulture and Crop production. His studies in Sowing integrate themes in fields like Subtropics and Yield.

Between 2011 and 2020, his most popular works were:

  • Biochar, Bentonite and Zeolite Supplemented Feeding of Layer Chickens Alters Intestinal Microbiota and Reduces Campylobacter Load. (53 citations)
  • Benefits of oxygation of subsurface drip-irrigation water for cotton in a Vertosol (25 citations)
  • Comparative metabolic and ionomic profiling of two cultivars of Stevia rebaudiana Bert. (Bertoni) grown under salinity stress. (16 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Botany

His primary areas of investigation include Agronomy, Horticulture, Soil water, Aeration and Irrigation. A large part of his Agronomy studies is devoted to Plant breeding. The Cultivar research David J. Midmore does as part of his general Horticulture study is frequently linked to other disciplines of science, such as Cannabis sativa, therefore creating a link between diverse domains of science.

He has researched Soil water in several fields, including Hectare, Carbon accounting, Ecosystem and Microbial population biology. His biological study focuses on Drip irrigation. The various areas that David J. Midmore examines in his Drip irrigation study include Water use, Crop and Water-use efficiency.
