Improving agricultural water productivity in the Indira Gandhi Nahar Pariyojana (IGNP)
ICARDA and CAZRI have recently concluded a 6-year research study on investigation of avenues to
improve agricultural water productivity in the INGP canal command area. The study was conducted in
stages I and I I of the ...
Determination of Irrigation Depths using a Numerical Model and Weather Forecast
Effect of a scheme of determining irrigation depth using numerical simulation for crop response to irrigation and weather forecast was tested for wheat cultivation in the semi-arid region of Jordan. Drip irrigation system, ...
Effect of simulated irrigation in wheat cultivation in Jordan
To enhance net income from limited water resources, Fujimaki et al. (2014) presented a scheme for determining irrigation depth using a numerical model of crop response to irrigation and quantitative weather forecast. To ...
Evaluation of CropSyst model for yield and water productivity of isabgol
India grows a large variety of medicinal plants. The most popular of them are isabgol, guggul, aswagandha, sarpgandha, satavri, tulsi etc. The healthiest part of isabgol are seeds which are used in medicine with or without ...
Evapotranspiration-based Irrigation Scheduling for Cotton in the Aral Sea Basin, Central Asia
The Aral Sea Basin (ASB) in Central Asia is particularly known for its present and predicted deficiencies in available water which may even lead to increased conflicts. This necessitates a re-thinking of the irrigated ...
Agricultural water management and ecosystem services in the Aral-Syrdarya watershed, Kazakhstan - Searching for novel ways to share water and improve ecosystem services in Kazakhstan
Nestled between the Syr Darya River and the Karatau mountain range, idyllic Turkestan region in South Kazakhstan Province is situated 250 km downstream from the Chardara reservoir. Agricultural land in this region is ...
Validatio of an Aanalytacl Model to lower the cost of solar-powered drip irrigation systems for smallholder farmers in the MENA region
Drip irrigation is a micro-irrigation technology that has been shown to conserve water and significantly increase crop yield. This technology could be particularly beneficial to the world’s estimated 500 million smallholder ...
Role of high-value, small-scale agricultural production in generating higher livelihoods for farm women in arid region of Rajasthan
India has been a predominantly an agrarian economy since time immemorial. Majority of the population is depending on agriculture & agriculture is the mainstay of national economy even today. Even though, agricultural ...
Performance of cropSyst simulation model for groundnut –wheat cropping system in IGNP stage –II
Simulation models are an important tool to understand soil-plant interactions on water balance components and their effects on crop growth and land productivity. Comparted to field experiments, the use of crop models to ...
Performance assessment of CropSyst model for yield and nitrogen uptake and water use of crops in hot arid north western Rajasthan
The crop yield and water productivity is a complex indicator because it can be ascribed mainly to agro-techniques, plant factors, and environment. Appropriate crop management strategies to improve yield and water productivity ...
