Yield gap assessment for late corn with diffferent seeding densities in the central region of Córdoba, Argentina
The yield gap (BR) in late corn (December) was evaluated in the central region of Córdoba, Argentina, comparing planting densities (DS) of 6 and 8 pl m-2 using the AquaCrop model.

description | The yield gap (BR) in late corn (December) was evaluated in the central region of Córdoba, Argentina, comparing planting densities (DS) of 6 and 8 pl m-2 using the AquaCrop model. Running the model between 1960 and 2017 required analyzing the consistency of the Penman-Monteith method (PM) to estimate the daily rate of reference evapotranspiration (ETo) using only maximum and minimum temperature records (ETo_PMTxTn), instead of the complete set of 4 fundamental variables. The ETo_PMTxTn values explain approximately 80 % of the variability of those obtained with the complete set of variables. AquaCrop was calibrated by using crop coverage samples, aerial biomass and soil water that were collected in a plot of late corn during the crop season 2015-2016. Three sowing dates were evaluated, 3 fixed and 3 variables, with no significant differences in BR for both DS. A small advance or delay in planting does not represent a decision affecting climate risk condition. While the increase of DS to 8 pl m-2 produced a significant increase in BR, it also presented average effective yields (RR) that are higher than those obtained with 6 pl m-2 for 47 of the 57 crop cycles analyzed. |

A partir del modelo AquaCrop se evaluó la brecha de rendimiento (BR) en maíz de siembra tardía en región central de Córdoba, Argentina, comparando densidades de siembra (DS) de 6 y 8 pl m-2. La ejecución del modelo entre 1960 y 2017 demandó analizar la consistencia del método de Penman-Monteith (PM) para estimar la tasa diaria de evapotranspiración de referencia (ETo) utilizando sólo registros de temperatura máxima y mínima (ETo_PMTxTn), en lugar del set completo de cuatro variables fundamentales. Los valores de ETo_PMTxTn explicaron 80 % de la variabilidad de aquellos obtenidos con el conjunto completo de variables. AquaCrop se calibró a partir de muestras de cobertura del cultivo, biomasa aérea y agua del suelo obtenidas en un lote de maíz tardío durante el ciclo 2015-2016. Fueron evaluadas tres fechas de siembra fijas y tres variables, sin encontrar diferencias significativas de BR para ambas DS. El adelanto o atraso de la siembra no representó un manejo que altere la condición del riesgo climático. Aunque el incremento de DS a 8 pl m-2 aumentó significativamente la BR también alcanzó rendimientos efectivos (RR) medios más altos a los obtenidos con 6 pl m-2 en 47 de los 57 ciclos de cultivo analizados.
