AB  - Soil pH is one of the most important limiting factors for crop cultivation, including maize. About 30-40% of the world's arable land is acidic, and over a billion ha is alkaline. Today, there are 205 million ha of arable land under maize in the world, so it ranks third in area after rice and wheat. Maize hybrids have wide genetic variability and high pH tolerance. We tested the tolerance of maize hybrids seedlings of ZP 4708 and ZP 5797 to pH 5, 6, 7, and 8. Results showed that hybrid ZP 4708 has a higher adaptability to low and high pH, due to the higher value of germination energy (GE), shoot length (ShL), shoot fresh weight (ShFW), shoot dry weight (ShDW), germination rate index (GRI), and seedling vigor index (SVI) than hybrid ZP 5797. Results further showed, on average for hybrids, that pH 5 and pH 8 significantly decreased the GE, root length (RL), ShL, root fresh weight (RFW), ShFW, root dry weight (RDW), shoot fresh weight (ShDW), and SVI. These parameters did not differ significantly between pH 6 and pH 7. Seed germination was not affected by the pH, indicating that the seed vigor of both hybrids supports full germination potential. However, it could be expected that exposure to the lowest and highest pH values of the medium could affect seedlings growth in the field conditions, even though germination is high. SVI showed a positive and significant correlation with all investigated parameters, except germination (G) and relative seedling water content (RSWC).

AB  - Maize is the top-produced crop in the world. Its chemical composition makes it suitable for human consumption, animal feed, and industrial uses. The total world production of maize in 2021 was 1210 billion tonnes from cultivating about 205 million ha. However, there are many limiting factors for cultivation, such as soil pH. Acidic soils are present on 30%–40% of the world's arable land, while more than 1 billion hectares are alkaline soils. It is important to choose genotypes of crops tolerant to high or low pH. Therefore, we conducted research in laboratory conditions on the influence of pH values (5, 6, 7, and 8) on seed germination and seedling growth of two maize Serbian hybrids ZP 4708 and ZP 5797. The hybrid ZP 4708 had higher germination energy (GE), shoot length (ShL), shoot fresh weight (ShFW), shoot dry weight (ShDW), germination rate index (GRI), and seedling vigor index (SVI) than hybrid ZP 5797. GE, root length (RL), ShL, root fresh weight (RFW), ShFW, root dry weight (RDW), ShDW, and SVI have the highest values in treatment with optimal pH 7, and lowest in treatment pH 5. However, these parameters did not
differ significantly between the treatments pH 6 and pH 7.

AB  - A greenhouse study was conducted to test the effects of low herbicide dose exposure on different crops measuring visible damages, plant height, leaf area, and dry matter. Seven crops were tested: lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) cv. Novosadska majska maslena, oil pumpkin (Cucurbita maxima Duch) cv. Olivija, oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.)
cv. NS Ras, pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) cv. Kurtovska kapija, soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr) cv. ZP Laura, sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) cv. NS Kruna, and tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) cv. Dunavski Rubin. Herbicide dicamba in the range of 0.14 to 1 155.6 g a.i. (active ingredient)/ha inhibited biomass, height, leaf area, and visual injury of all crops, while glyphosate doses from 0.48 to 3 840 g a.i./ha also reduced the growth of all tested species. A rate of 116 g a.i./ha mesotrione was needed to reach 80% visual injury in oilseed rape, while the same effects on lettuce only required 1.8 g a.i./ha of mesotrione. Tomato and oil pumpkin were also sensitive to low mesotrione doses, where only 1.3 g and 0.5 g a.i./ha of mesotrione was needed for 80% of biomass reduction, respectively. Lettuce was the most sensitive crop of all tested species; biomass was reduced by 80% by dicamba, glyphosate, mesotrione, and nicosulfuron at the low rates of 33 g a.i./ha, 19 g a.i./ha, 1.25 g a.i./ha, and 2.7 g a.i./ha, respectively. Among all herbicides, visible injuries were detected in dicamba at the lowest rates. Soybean was the most tolerant of glyphosate, mesotrione, and nicosulfuron. Based on the available literature and obtained results, herbicide off-target movement must be mitigated to maximise herbicide efficacy and decrease the negative influence on susceptible plants and the environment.

AB  - Malnutrition is a global problem, hitting both, people and 
animals. Due to the many factors, such as climate change, soil depletion, 
anthropogenic impact, including irresponsible soil management, high fertilization 
rates with macro-nutrients, crops lack in essential nutrients, particularly minerals, 
Mg, Fe, Zn, etc., as well as important vitamins, like carotenoids, vitamins from B 
group. Also, some arable soils have naturally low fertility. All of that negatively 
affect production of domestic animal, including animal health and quality of 
livestock products. To mitigate malnutrition, a bio-fortification strategy was 
developed. It is based on increase in the concentration of essential nutrients in food 
and feed, and also to promote further bio-availability from digestive organs. Bio fortification implies various practices. Two main types of bio-fortification were 
developed: genetic bio-fortification, and agronomic bio-fortification. The first one 
uses standard breeding techniques, marker assistant selection, transgenic 
approaches, genome editing, etc., to develop highly-efficient genotypes, that are 
able to absorb and accumulate higher concentrations of essential nutrients in 
biomass and grains. Agronomic bio-fortification uses different practices, such is 
special fertilizers, enriched with essential minerals, foliar fertilizers, bio-fertilizers, 
growth hormones and enhancers, and some lesser known sustainable practices, like 
inter-cropping, cover cropping, in order to increase crop yields, as well as the 
concentration of essential nutrients. The bio-fortification approach, based on the 
development and commercialisation of highly efficient genotypes, as well as 
agricultural practices that enable and support better absorption and accumulation of 
essential nutrients option that is safer for both, people and domestic animals. 
Mutual increase in concentration of essential minerals, vitamins, and other 
promoting substances is of a particular importance for bio-fortification programs, 
increasing efficiency and success of applied practices, thus positively reflecting on 
animal health and wellbeing.

AB  - Maize silage is source of palatable and high-energy forage for ruminants. Therefore, production of high quality forage
maize represents an essential strategy for stable production of milk and meat on livestock farms. This study examined the
effect of harvest date (early dent, at half milk line, at three quarters milk line and black layer) on the quantitative and
qualitative parameters of whole maize plant under contrasting climatic conditions in the Srem - Serbia. A 2 × 4 factorial
(two years and the four cutting times) randomized blocks design was used, with three replications. The plant height, stem
diameter, number of leaves per plant, forage yield, dry matter yield and dry matter content were higher in 2014 probably
due to favorable weather conditions. With the delay of the harvest the forage yield, crude protein content, acid detergent
fiber (ADF) and neutral detergent fiber (NDF) decreased, and dry matter yield, dry matter content and ear percentage
increased. Sufficiently high dry matter content and ear percentage were achieved at the third harvest. However, the delay
of harvested time reduces the quality parameters of the biomass, but this loss in the entire plant is moderated by grain
filling.

AB  - The successful production of soybeans is largely dependent on the sowing time, because
every sowing outside the optimal time contributes significantly to yield losses. This field study
aimed to evaluate the e ects of sowing time (optimal—April 5; late—April 27) on the quantitative
and quality traits of three soybean genotypes (Galina—0 maturity group; Sava—I maturity group;
and Rubin—II maturity group) under dryland conditions in Vojvodina Province (Serbia) during
2017 and 2018. The genotype Sava had higher yield in climatic-unfavorable 2017, while Rubin had a
higher yield in climatic-favorable 2018. The yields significantly decreased when the soybeans were
sown in late April due to reductions in the number of pods per plant, seed weight per plant, and
1000-seed weight. The reduction in yield components was likely due to the accelerated senescence of
plants and the negative e ect of high temperature and low precipitation during the seed filling stage.
Accordingly, the various sowing times and properly chosen genotypes provide a better utilization of
soil and water resources. A proper genotype selection and sowing time can contribute to a high yield.
At the same time, the protein and oil contents can be altered by the sowing time, especially under
water stress during the reproductive stage.

AB  - The objective of this study was to evaluate the impact of two foliar fertilizers applied on fivemaize (Zea maysL.) lines. Fertilizers were applied at different growth stages of maize, during threeconsecutive years (2010–2012) at the experimental field of the Maize Research Institute “Zemun Polje”,Serbia. Maize growth parameters such as fresh matter, height, leaf area and grain yield were recorded.Foliar fertilizer with amino acids (FAA) was more advantageous to maize plants compared to fertilizercontaining phosphorus (FP) as a main component.   Applied FAA has shown positive effects byincreasing fresh matter, leaf area index, and plant height in all three years. In 2012, due to unfavorablemeteorological conditions, grain yield and harvest index were very low, compared to the previoustwo years, although, positive effects on morphological traits were observed 21 days after treatments(DAT), as well as in the anthesis stage.  The best results of 30% of grain yield and harvest indexincrease were recorded in line L1 in 2010 and 2011. The same line had an increase of more than 40%of fresh matter and leaf area on average for all three years. The positive effects that have been noticedin this research could recommend foliar fertilizing with fertilizer containing N in a form of an aminoacids complex.

AB  - Field experiment was conducted to examine the impacts of two sowing dates (8 April - first date of sowing and
21 April - second date of sowing) and four nitrogen rates (0, 60, 120 and 180 kg ha-1) on the productivity of maize
hybrid ‘ZP 434’ in the Pannonian region of Serbia during 2016 and 2017 seasons. The dry period during late
vegetative development and grain filling stage in 2017 decreased ear traits, grain yield, starch and oil contents,
nitrogen agronomic (NAE) and nitrogen use efficiency (NUE). The highest number of grains per ear, starch and oil
contents, starch and oil yields and lower rainfall use efficiency (RUE) and protein content were obtained from the
early sowing date. The ear traits, grain yield, RUE, protein content, oil content and yield of starch, protein and oil
significantly increased while NAE, NUE and starch content significantly decreased with increasing nitrogen rate.
The results indicated a significant inverse correlation between starch and protein contents, which prevents the
improvement of these two parameters simultaneously. Thus, timely sowing and nitrogen input should be used as
long term management strategies for increasing maize yield and grain quality.
