Empirical evaluation of sustainability of divergent farms in the dryland farming systems of India
The present study argues that there are heterogeneous farm systems within the drylands and each farm
system is unique in terms of its livelihood asset and agricultural practice, and therefore in sustainability.
Our method ...
Drivers and major changes in agricultural production systems in drylands of South Asia: assessing implications for key environmental indicators and research needs
The South Asian dryland (arid and semiarid)
ecosystems have been exhibiting considerable agricultural production system changes. In
fact, today, there are scientific consensus that this nature of agricultural production ...
Entry Points to Improve Livestock Water Productivity in Selected Forage Based Livestock Systems
