Yield is a complex trait in which plants transform captured light, carbon dioxide, water and nutrients into storage materials.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Many factors give rise to the total amount of biomass stored by the plant including crop leaf area, sunlight, sunlight utilization efficiency, fertilizers and fertilizer uptake, whilst the amounts stored in grain or stover is linked to storage capacity, sink strength and harvest index. Ultimately harvestable yield is the key to efficiently collecting, distributing and using the stored biomass materials for feed, food or fuel.
