Watershed Management in South Asia: A Synoptic Review
Watershed management (WSM) is the most widely adopted technology in developed as well as developing countries due to its suitability across climatic conditions. Watershed technology is suitable to protect and enhance soil ...
Enhancing grasspea (Lathyrus sativus) production in problematic soils of South Asia for nutritional security
Grasspea (Lathyrus sativus L.) a multi-purpose, climate smart legume crop which can sustain drought, waterlogging and salinity, and can be grown under minimal external inputs. It is grown on about one million ha area in ...
Genotype × Environment Interaction and Identification of High Yielding Wheat Genotypes for Afghanistan
Wheat is a key cereal for human consumption in Afghanistan but has low productivity stemmed from various biotic and abiotic stresses and soil factors. To quantify the limitations to yield productivity, two sets of wheat ...
A Bayesian Assessment of Productivity and Risks to Achieve target Yields from Improved Chickpea and Mung Bean Varieties Using On-Farm Trials in Afghanistan
Legumes are essential to meet nutrition need of growing population in Afghanistan but have low productivity under the farmer practices. With an aim to introduce improved varieties of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) and mung ...
Genotype × Environment interactioon in Chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) under Afghanistan environments and identification of high yielding genotypes
To meet the growing demand of food and protein of Afghan population, winter-sown chickpea (Cicer arietinum L.) is an important contributor but its productivity needs to be increased. Therefore this study was conducted to ...
A phenology based geo-informatics approach to map land use and land cover (2003 - 2013) by spatial segregation of large heterogenic river basins
Accurate information on land use and land cover (LULC) is critical for policy decisions especially for management of land and water resources’ activities in large river basins around the world. Phenology based LULC ...
Technical efficiency of wheat farmers and options for minimizing yield gaps in Afghanistan
Afghanistan is a net importer of wheat which is the staple food in the country. In order to improve the levels of food
sufficiency, prevailing large yield gaps in wheat need to be reduced. This study assessed the reasons/factors ...
