Popis: Crop susceptibility factors for plants stressed by excessive soil water conditions (wet stress) are presented for five growth stages based on four years of experimental data for com and five years of data for soybean. Com was most susceptible to wet stress just prior to tasseling and soybean was most susceptible during the pod filling stage. A normalizing approach is presented that reduces the sensitivity of the crop susceptibility factor to the level of stress imposed. Evidence is presented based on data from three independent studies on com to show that use of the normalized crop susceptibility (NCS) factor reduces its dependence on stress duration.
