Agricultural water productivity Hotspots of irrigated areas in 2002
The Hot spots of high and low water productivity was done by classifying the biophysical agricultural water productivity (kg/m3) layer into three classes: (i) High water productivity which includes values exceeding 1.0 ...
Mechanization to Drive A Process for Fertilizer Subsidy Reform in Egypt
Publicly available estimates suggest that close to 30%
of total employment in Egypt is generated from the
agricultural sector (World Bank, 2016). In percentage
terms, the figure is in line with many economies, both
industrialized ...
Integrated Plant Genetic and Balanced Nutrient Management Enhances Crop and Water Productivity of Rainfed Production Systems in Rajasthan, India
Analysis of soils from 421 farmers’ fields in eastern districts of Rajasthan, India, revealed widespread deficiencies of sulfur (S; 43 to 87% fields deficient), boron (B; 25 to 100%), and zinc (Zn; 0 to 94%) in addition ...

The Hot spots of high and low water productivity was done by classifying the biophysical agricultural water productivity (kg/m3) layer into three classes: (i) High water productivity which includes values exceeding 1.0 ...
Management practices for improving water productivity in the Dasht-e-Azadegan
Wheat is the main cultivated crop in the LKRB (mainly the Dashte- Azadegan plain). Its average yield is 1500 kg/ha (Agricultural Statistics 2004). Irrigation management practices are traditional and the region suffers from ...
Improved Livelihoods and Water Productivity through Integrated Watershed Management – A Case Study from China
ICRISAT in partnership with Guizhou Academy of Agricultural Sciences (GAAS), and Yunnan
Academy of Agricultural Sciences (YAAS) implemented two benchmark watersheds namely
Lucheba Watershed at Guizhou and Xiaoxincun ...
Agricultural water productivity for irrigated areas in 2008
Agricultural Water Productivity (WPM) (kg/m3) was determined for each pixel by dividing crop productivity (kg/ha) raster layer by seasonal crop water use in terms of actual evapotranspiration (m3/ha) raster layer. The WPM ...
