Durum Wheat Genotypic Variation of Yield and Nitrogen use Efficiency and Its Components Under Different Water and Nitrogen Regimes in the Mediterranean Region
Farmers in dry areas of the Mediterranean region are reluctant to apply nitrogen (N) fertilizer
to rainfed wheat because of frequent drought. So, it is desirable to select varieties with high nitrogen
use efficiency (NUE). ...
IDENTIFYING SOME HERBICIDE RESISTANT GRASSES, MONITORING THEIR NATURE AND DISTRIBUTION IN SOUTHWESTERN PART OF ALEPPO CITY, SYRIA
It is common to say that weeds in Syria have developed resistance to herbicides, but this needs to be confirmed by research studies which are rare in the area. This study is run to describe and diagnose those weeds, and ...
Effects of tillage and time of sowing on bread wheat, chickpea, barley and lentil grown in rotation in rainfed systems in Syria
Cropping systems in the drylands of west Asia are characterized by grazing, burning or harvesting of stub-bles, multiple cultivations and late sowing, which can limit yields and lead to soil erosion and degradation.There ...
Potential legume alternatives to fallow and wheat monoculture for Mediterranean environments
Growing populations and intensification of land-use in West Asia and North Africa (WANA) are prompting
a need for viable alternatives to fallow and cereal mono-cropping systems common in dry areas of this region. ...

Does Zero Tillage Improve the Livelihoods of Smallholder Cropping Farmers?
The biophysical benefits of zero tillage (ZT) are well documented in the literature.
However, the literature on its economic benefits, especially in the context
of small and medium-scale farmers in the temperate developing ...
Effects of land use changes and soil conservation intervention on soil properties as indicators for land degradation under a Mediterranean climate
Land degradation resulting from improper land
use and management is a major cause of declined productivity
in the arid environment. The objectives of this study were
to examine the effects of a sequence of land use ...
