Yield components of crops. The yield of a grain crop plant can be divided into various components which together contributed to the yield. These components include : Heads, ears or pods per acre... Number of kernels or seeds per head, ear or pod... Weight per kernel or seed... Any crop production factor which decreases any one of these factors results in decreased yield.... Full yield potential is almost never achieved because environmental conditions may limit one or more of the yield components during the growing season. 2, record 1, English, - yield%20component

... to date, the vast majority of public fishing access agreements... do not mention any quotas, and at best, refer to a "limit of reference"(which can be exceeded for an additional payment, without any links to management targets, such as [maximum sustainable yield], or stock status). This creates a loophole that both distant-water fishing countries and host countries use to maximize either their catch or their rent, sometimes at the expense of the [marine] resource's health... 9, record 2, English, - distant%20water%20fishing%20nation

The nutrient requirement of a plant individual or population is defined as the amount of nutrients that has to be absorbed per unit of time to maintain its biomass. 2, record 4, English, - nutrient%20requirement
Record number: 4, Textual support number: 1 OBS
In order to grow, plants need light, heat, mechanical support, air, water, and nutrients... Plant nutrients are comprised of the fourteen essential elements that plants obtain from the soil. Some are required in relatively large quantities. Others are needed only in very small amounts. In soils, the nutrients most likely to be limiting are nitrogen and phosphorus. When soil nutrients cannot produce a good crop yield, additional nutrients must be added. Applying too little nutrient will limit yield. Applying too much does not make economic sense and can harm the environment. 3, record 4, English, - nutrient%20requirement
