Pareto-front-based optimization of irrigation and nitrogen application schedule in Sandy-soil maize: Trade-offs among yield, water productivity, nitrogen physiological efficiency, and grain nitrogen concentration

Context Developing appropriate irrigation and nitrogen application schedules (INASs) is essential for maize production on sandy soils, where low water-retention and nutrient-holding capacities make crop performance highly sensitive to within-season water and nitrogen management....
