Tillering

Definition: tillering

tillering: The process of developing several seedheads in a plant of wheat, barley, or oats. Tillering leads to the production of a heavier yield, and can be induced by rolling the young crop in the spring when it begins to grow. Understanding tillering is crucial for optimizing crop management and improving yields.
