Poster of the Effect of agriculture practices and stocking rates on performances of Barbarine ewes grazing on wheat stubble in Tunisian semi-arid conditions
Harnessing Indigenous Forage Legume Species to Bridge Feeding Gaps and Mitigate Climate Change Impacts
Sulla (Hedysarum spp.) emerges as a noteworthy legume, renowned for its resilience in semi-arid agricultural settings. With traits like high productivity, deep roots, and palatability, it offers a compelling solution for ...
Development of new large seeded faba bean (Vicia faba L.) genotypes resistant to broomrape
Broomrapes are one of the major constraints limiting faba bean cultivation and production in the Mediterranean and Sub-Saharan Africa regions. The infested areas are in continuous expansion due to the fast spread and ...
Identification of new chickpea genetic resources resistant to fusarium wilt under multi-environments
Fusarium wilt (Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. ciceris) is an important biotic constraint to chickpea production worldwide. Host plant resistance is the most durable and economical way to manage these diseases. Fusarium wilt ...
Refinement and Scaling of Inclusive Agroecological Innovations for Livestock Management, Crop Rotations, and Soil Conservation in Semi-arid South Mediterranean Regions
The objective of this work is to i) present a socio-technical package of agroecological interventions that are already being tested for this type of mixed farming system in the semi-arid area of Tunisia, and ii) illustrate ...
Transition Pathways toward Agroecology in Semi-arid “Crop-Livestock” Systems at Rhahla, Gaafour
Specialization and intensification of agricultural systems and the search for profit have guided the evolution of agriculture to new farming models emerging to respond to a growing demand for food, despite the complementary ...
Contextual Socio-Ecological Types in Kesra
The impact of agricultural activities on the environment and its less favorable consequences on resources such as land support and water resources are more harmful in mountainous areas than in the plains since mountain ...
Transition pathway towards agroecology in the semi-arid olive-based farming systems of Tunisia
Global population growth will require a 50% increase in food production by 2050. However, the current food system that promotes productivity and competitiveness has failed to provide nutritious food for all and contributes ...
Transition Pathway Toward Agroecology in Agroforestry Systems: Case of Kesra
The mountain of Kesra is located at an altitude of 1245 m with a very uneven relief. It belongs to the upper semi-arid bioclimatic stage. The range of soils is very diverse due to the extreme variability of substrates, ...
Scaling agroecological packages for soil and water conservation in mixed crop livestock systems in Tunisia
This work shows opportunities and constraints related to the scaling of soil and water conservation technological packages in Tunisia. This poster was delivered during the Tropentag 2022 conference in Prague Czech University ...
