At present, these models are not good enough in handling the relationships among varieties, the environment and management measures. We need to enable them to better integrate with the local soil and climate conditions, and also take into account the requirements of sustainable development. In terms of promotion, we need to assist farmers in mastering the appropriate planting density and fertilization methods, such as how to apply fertilizers in batches, how to sow precisely, or how to carry out integrated water and fertilizer management. At the same time, policymakers should also encourage farming methods that can both ensure farmers' income and reduce environmental impact. It is also necessary to promote the method of using data to guide agricultural management and encourage more farmers to give it a try. If we want to achieve high and stable wheat yields while developing sustainable agriculture, it is necessary to optimize planting density and the use of nitrogen fertilizers. To achieve this, it still depends on better models, farmers' participation, and reasonable policy support. Acknowledgments We are grateful to Dr. Z. Xu for his assistance with the serious reading and helpful discussions during the course of this work.
