Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Agriculture
  • Agronomy

The scientist’s investigation covers issues in Weed, Agronomy, Competition, Weed control and Crop. His research in the fields of Intercropping, Cover crop and Sowing overlaps with other disciplines such as Mathematics and Intercom. His study looks at the relationship between Competition and topics such as Cultivar, which overlap with Poaceae.

The Weed control study combines topics in areas such as Agriculture and Management science. Lammert Bastiaans works mostly in the field of Crop, limiting it down to concerns involving Field experiment and, occasionally, Crop yield, Interspecific competition, Cropping system and Apium graveolens. Lammert Bastiaans focuses mostly in the field of Cultural control, narrowing it down to matters related to Crop management and, in some cases, Cropping.

His most cited work include:

  • ON APPROACHES AND APPLICATIONS OF THE WAGENINGEN CROP MODELS (509 citations)
  • The role of ecology in the development of weed management systems: an outlook. (187 citations)
  • Light interception and utilization in relay intercrops of wheat and cotton (177 citations)

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

His scientific interests lie mostly in Agronomy, Weed, Crop, Weed control and Agroforestry. His research in Intercropping, Sowing, Cultivar, Striga hermonthica and Cover crop are components of Agronomy. His work blends Weed and Computer science studies together.

His Crop research integrates issues from Biomass, Productivity, Soil fertility and Senecio vulgaris. His Weed control study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Germination, Organic farming and Environmental planning. The concepts of his Agroforestry study are interwoven with issues in Cropping and Parasitic Weeds.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Agronomy (70.18%)
  • Weed (44.74%)
  • Crop (21.93%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2013-2021)?

  • Agronomy (70.18%)
  • Weed (44.74%)
  • Rhamphicarpa fistulosa (8.77%)

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

His main research concerns Agronomy, Weed, Rhamphicarpa fistulosa, Weed control and Agriculture. In most of his Agronomy studies, his work intersects topics such as Soil water. His work on Crop weed as part of general Weed study is frequently linked to Policy development, bridging the gap between disciplines.

His studies deal with areas such as Facultative, Host, Parasitic plant and Striga hermonthica as well as Rhamphicarpa fistulosa. His Weed control research is multidisciplinary, incorporating elements of Environmental economics and Germination. His Crop study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Dry matter and Sowing.

Between 2013 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • RAAIS: Rapid Appraisal of Agricultural Innovation Systems (Part I). A diagnostic tool for integrated analysis of complex problems and innovation capacity (84 citations)
  • Systems approaches to innovation in crop protection. A systematic literature review (69 citations)
  • Biochar increases plant-available water in a sandy loam soil under an aerobic rice crop system (61 citations)

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

  • Agriculture
  • Ecology
  • Agronomy

Agronomy, Rhamphicarpa fistulosa, Agriculture, Weed and Crop protection are his primary areas of study. His Crop study, which is part of a larger body of work in Agronomy, is frequently linked to Biochar, bridging the gap between disciplines. His study explores the link between Crop and topics such as Sowing that cross with problems in Weed control.

His Rhamphicarpa fistulosa research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Facultative and Striga hermonthica. His work carried out in the field of Weed brings together such families of science as Range, Habitat, Infestation, Parasitic plant and Orobanchaceae. His Crop protection research includes themes of Cropping, Environmental resource management and Environmental planning.
