Evaluation of CropSyst model for clusterbean under hot arid condition
The study on “Evaluation of Cropsyst model for yield and water productivity of clusterbean” was conducted on farmers
field during kharif 2012 at village Mainawali in Hanumangarh district of Rajasthan. The soils of the area ...
Conservation tillage enhances crop productivity and decreases soil nitrogen losses in a rainfed agroecosystem of the Loess Plateau, China
Conservation tillage has been recommended as one of the effective soil management practices for
mitigating the negative environmental effects of synthetic ammonia application and hence achieving
cleaner agricultural ...
SWAT: Agricultural water and nonpoint source pollution management at a watershed scale
Global change and demographic changes increasingly cause water, food, and health problems at many places of the world. In addition, the growth in bioenergy production leads to land-use change and associated environmental ...
A Holistic Framework towards Developing a Climate-Smart Agri-Food System in the Middle East and North Africa: A Regional Dialogue and Synthesis
Agriculture and agri-food systems of the highly vulnerable Middle East and North Africa
(MENA) region needs a radical transformation under a changing climate. Based on a two-year effort,
initially we developed a mega ...
A framework for priority-setting in climate smart agriculture research
Climate-smart agriculture (CSA) is widely promoted as an approach for reorienting agricultural development under the realities of climate change. Prioritising research-for-development activities is crucial, given the need ...
Surface Runoff and Drought Assessment Using Global Water Resources Datasets - from Oum Er Rbia Basin to the Moroccan Country Scale
Precipitation and surface runoff vary strongly in space and time across Morocco. The country’s water management is primarily governed at the basin level, following a decentralized approach. However, in some cases, water ...
Effect of irrigation and nitrogen application on water productivity and performance of Cotton (Gossypium sp.)
An experiment was conducted at research farm, Agricultural research sub-station, Hanumangarh, a
unit of Swami Keshwanand Rajasthan Agricultural University, Bikaner during Kharif season, 2016 to
study the effect of water ...
Optimizing cotton irrigation regime using climatic data from mini weather station via evapotranspiration in the Fergana Valley, Uzbekistan (in Russian)
Irrigated agriculture is the backbone of Central Asian economies and efficient
irrigation management is of crucial importance to the sustainable crop production. The ET-based irrigation scheduling method has potential to ...
Heat units-based potential yield assessment for cotton production in Uzbekistan
Cotton yields in Uzbekistan are significantly lower than those in similar agro-climatic regions, requiring the
estimation of crop potential and baseline yield to track progress of production enhancement efforts. The current ...
Genotype and agronomic management interaction to enhance wheat yield and water use efficiency in the Mediterranean rainfed environment of Morocco: I. Field data analysis
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum), considered better drought tolerant, is the most cultivated wheat in Morocco and in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The region, including Morocco, predominantly ...
