Yield and water use of eggplants (Solanum melongena L.) under full and deficit irrigation regimes
Field experiments were conducted in 2008 and 2009 to determine the effects of deficit irrigation on yield and water use of field grown eggplants. A total of 8 irrigation treatments (four each year), which received different ...
Deficit irrigation under water stress and salinity conditions: The MOPECO-Salt Model
In both arid and semi-arid areas the use of saline water for irrigation is a common practice, even though it may cause a drop in crop yield and progressive soil salinization. In order to determine the most suitable irrigation ...
Current Status of Agro-biodiversity in Lebanon and Future Challenges
Though a small country, Lebanon hosts various ecosystems that allow for a large number of
plants ranging from cold requiring crops to subtropical ones to live and flourish. More than 80

Eco - physiological behaviour of two woody oak species to combat desertification in the east Mediterranean-a case study from Lebanon
The Millennium Ecosystem Assessment scenarios as well as other global assessments have revealed that factors like climate change, land use changes, biotic interferences and atmospheric CO2 will be the major drivers of ...
Seed And Forage Yield, And Forage Quality Determinants Of Nine Legume Shrubs In A Non-Tropical Dryland Environment
The objective was to identify legume shrub species for development of agroforestry technologies based on seed and forage (leaves and twigs < 10 mm diameter)yield, and determinants of forage quality. Ten individual plants ...
