Sources of resistance in the existing breeding germplasm will be identified for incorporation in the elite cultivar/variety
In order to identify new sources of resistance to net blotch, a FIGS subset consisting of 96 barley accessions was screened with a mixture of 20-isolates of net blotch collected from different agro-climatic regions of ...
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 ...
Identification of machine harvestable lentils with herbicide tolerance
Sixty-six machine harvestable lentil lines were evaluated in two separate yield trials along with three checks at two locations, Marchouch in Morocco and Terbol in Lebanon, during 2019. Based on good standing ability, ...
Chemical composition, and insecticidal activities of four plant essential oils from Morocco against larvae of Helicoverpa armigera (Hub.) under field and laboratory conditions
Aromatic and medicinal plants are a rich source of molecules with insecticidal activities against many insect pests. The present study investigated the insecticidal activities of four essential oils against the third instar ...
Farming with Alternative Pollinators (FAP) in large scale fields
This brochure is for large-scale farmers producing in monocultures. We show fields and field results from three regions with different climate: Settat (semi-arid, 90% of arable land is covered with cereals), Sidi Slimane ...
