Global irrigation contribution to wheat and maize yield

Global irrigation contribution to wheat and maize yield

There are big uncertainties in the contribution of irrigation to crop yields. Here, the authors use Bayesian model averaging to combine statistical and process-based models and quantify the contribution of irrigation for wheat and maize yields, finding that irrigation alone cannot close yield gaps f...
