Toward Sustainable Water Resources Management in the Tunisian Citrus Sector: Impact of Pricing Policies on Water Resources Reallocation
This study aims to analyse Tunisian farmers’ ability to pay (ATP) in a citrus area and
propose a penalising price strategy based on the block‐pricing process to decrease over‐irrigation
without affecting farmers’ incomes. ...
Better Crop-Livestock Integration for Enhanced Agricultural System Resilience and Food Security in the Changing Climate: Case Study from Low-Rainfall Areas of North Africa
Increasingly frequent droughts, declining soil fertility, and poor plantanimal-
atmosphere interactions are threatening the sustainability of integrated croplivestock
systems in the rainfed drylands of North Africa. Previous ...
