It is widely recognized that sustainable land management practices (SLM) are much
needed for improving land-based livelihoods of 2.5 billion people living in the dry areas across the
globe. Adoption and effectiveness of ...
Quantification of cropping pattern and productivity of agro-ecosystems in Central Asia
Agricultural production systems in Central Asia have been evolving in response to changes in climate, land use and policies. The cropping pattern and productivities of irrigated and rainfed agro-ecosystems as well as grazing ...
Exacerbated degradation and desertification of grassland in Central Asia
Grassland desertification is a complex process, including both state conversion (e.g., grasslands to deserts) and
gradual within-state change (e.g., greenness dynamics). Existing studies generally did not separate the ...

Agro-ecosystems in dry areas are sensitive to changes in climate
and land use. The productivities of these agro-ecosystems are
highly variable in both spatial and temporal scales. Accurate and
up-to-date information on ...
