Corn: Yield gap
Yield gaps measure the difference between actual yields and attainable yields. Attainable yields are more conservative than absolute biophysical ‘potential yields’, butare achievable using current technologies and management (e.g. fertilizers and irrigation). Corn (maize) yields are measured in tonnes per hectare.
