Evolution of Crop Water Productivity in the Nile Delta over Three Decades (1985-2015)
Estimating crop water productivity (CWP) for spatially variable climatic conditions in Egypt is important for the redistribution of crop planting to optimize production per unit of water consumed. The current paper aims ...
Impact of climate change and agricultural practices on irrigation water requirements under Nile delta conditions
Agriculture in Egypt consumes about 80% of the available water resources. With an ever-increasing demand and a relatively fixed supply of fresh water, every drop of water should be treated as a drop of life. Consequently, ...
On - Farm Irrigation
The present study aims at improving water management in on-farm using CropWat model.
Atlas for water consumption (ETc) and amount of irrigation water used (IR) for Egyptian crops over three decades (1985-2015): Part 1: North Nile Delta Region
The agricultural land in Egypt is nearly irrigated of about 98% due to the very dry conditions i.e. no rain fed agriculture from economic point of view is implemented. Capita share per annum from water is less than the ...
Misr 3, a New Orobanche Tolerant Faba Bean Variety
Ten promising Orobanche tolerant faba bean genotypes were evaluated with
Misr 1 and Giza 843 (tolerant) and Giza 40 (susceptible) under free and highly
Orobanche infested fields at Giza Research Station from 2005/06 to ...
Effective management of on-farm irrigation for some major crops in Egypt using CROPWAT model
Field experiments were carried out (2013/2014 and 2014/2015 for wheat; 2014 and 2015 for maize) at the two sites of Giza area (Giza governorate, represented to Middle Egypt) and Shandaweel area (Sohag governorate, represented ...
