Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Agronomy
  • Botany
  • Horticulture

Fernando H. Andrade focuses on Agronomy, Shading, Poaceae, Dry matter and Crop. His Agronomy research includes elements of Photosynthetically active radiation and Botany. His work deals with themes such as Field experiment, Cultivar and Mollisol, which intersect with Poaceae.

As part of the same scientific family, Fernando H. Andrade usually focuses on Dry matter, concentrating on Shoot and intersecting with Hybrid. In his study, Crop yield is inextricably linked to Yield, which falls within the broad field of Crop. His work focuses on many connections between Zea mays and other disciplines, such as Plant density, that overlap with his field of interest in Grain yield.

His most cited work include:

  • Kernel Number Determination in Maize (329 citations)
  • Nitrogen Defeciency in Maize: I. Effects on Crop Growth, Development, Dry Matter Partitioning, and Kernel Set (292 citations)
  • Growth, water use, and kernel abortion of maize subjected to drought at silking (206 citations)

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

Fernando H. Andrade spends much of his time researching Agronomy, Crop, Hybrid, Sowing and Dry matter. His study in Agronomy focuses on Yield, Growing season, Poaceae, Grain yield and Crop yield. His study in Crop is interdisciplinary in nature, drawing from both Grain filling and Photosynthetically active radiation.

His research investigates the link between Sowing and topics such as Endosperm that cross with problems in Amylose and Starch. The Dry matter study combines topics in areas such as Photosynthesis and Shoot. The concepts of his Botany study are interwoven with issues in Sunflower, Helianthus annuus and Field experiment.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (124.83%)
  • Crop (49.66%)
  • Hybrid (37.93%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Agronomy (124.83%)
  • Crop (49.66%)
  • Yield (30.34%)

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

Agronomy, Crop, Yield, Nitrous oxide and Productivity are his primary areas of study. His work in Agronomy is not limited to one particular discipline; it also encompasses Canopy. His Canopy research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Photosynthetic capacity, Cropping and Leaf area index.

His work in Photosynthetic capacity addresses subjects such as Crop growth rate, which are connected to disciplines such as Crop growth and Crop species. Fernando H. Andrade interconnects Precision agriculture and Yield gap in the investigation of issues within Yield. His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Agricultural productivity and Photosynthetically active radiation.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Precision agriculture based on crop physiological principles improves whole-farm yield and profit: A case study (18 citations)
  • Precision agriculture based on crop physiological principles improves whole-farm yield and profit: A case study (18 citations)
  • Soybean Seed Yield Response to Plant Density by Yield Environment in North America (17 citations)
