Effects of surface and subsurface drip irrigation regimes with saline water on yield and water use efficiency of potato in arid conditions of Tunisia
Field experiments were conducted on a sandy soil during spring of 2009
and autumn of 2010 in southern Tunisia for evaluating the effects of two drip
irrigation methods and three irrigation regimes on soil moisture and ...
Diverse and resilient agro-pastoral systems: a common goal for the Mediterranean regions
The potential of agriculture to maintain or even further intensify production to meet the food and fibre
needs of increasing populations without degrading the capacity of the resource base is a major concern worldwide.
