Why Conservation Agriculture in rainfed drylands in Morocco
Crop yield in the rainfed Mediterranean environment in Morocco, the hot spot for climate change, is highly affected by rainfall variability, temperature extremes, and declining soil quality. Several research findings ...
Diversified Cropping System: Relay Intercropping of Lentil with Quinoa (Morocco)
A Diversified Cropping System (DCS) results in a more resilient and intensive cropping
system. In this case quinoa was introduced as an intercrop for lentil. The yield of lentil is
not reduced; hence the system becomes ...
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 ...
Morocco to convert 1M Ha to conservation Agriculture - How ICARDA/INRA Fit in
Conservation Agriculture is a sustainable agricultural production system guided by three core principles: no (or minimal) tillage to the soil after harvest; permanent soil cover to lock in moisture and reduce evaporation; ...
Diagnosis of the current state of conservation agriculture in Morocco and economic review
Morocco, as all North African countries, is highly vulnerable to the consequences of climate change because of its strong exposure to increases in temperature, changes in freshwater availability, and population growth. ...
Online training report on: Agronomic Data Collection and Management Tools for Better Agricultural Research
Excellence in Agronomy (EiA) and Fragility to Resilience in Central and West Asia and North Africa
(F2R-CWANA) are “One CGIAR” Initiatives that aim for sustainable intensification and climate change
adaptation in addition ...
Diversified Cropping System: Relay Intercropping of Lentils with Onions (Morocco)
A Diversified Cropping System (DCS) results in more resilient and intensive cropping. In
this case, the cash crop of onions was introduced as an intercrop for lentils. The yield of
lentils is not reduced; hence the system ...
Diversified Cropping System: Relay Intercropping of Lentils with Chickpeas [Morocco]
A Diversified Cropping System (DCS) results in a more resilient and productive cropping
system. In this case, chickpeas were introduced as a relay intercrop between established
lines of lentils. This not only had no negative ...
Genotype × environment × agronomic management interaction to enhance wheat yield in the Mediterranean rainfed environments of Morocco: II. Process based modeling
urum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum) is the oldest and most cultivated cereal crop in Middle East and
North Africa (MENA) region and under Mediterranean climatic conditions. Morocco is one of the largest pro ducer ...
Diversified cropping systems for sustainable intensification of dryland family farming
This video documentary highlights ICARDA’s research and delivery efforts for diversifying the existing mono-cropping cropping system in drylands. Diversifying the cropping system improves crop productivity, nutrition ...
