A policy option for valuing irrigation water in the dry areas
Participants at the international conference on policies for water and food security in the dry areas, held in June 2013, agreed that, given the fast pace of depletion of groundwater, the issue of water valuation in the ...
The Generalized Difference Vegetation Index (GDVI) for Dryland Characterization
A large number of vegetation indices have been developed and widely applied
in terrestrial ecosystem research in the recent decades. However, a certain limitation was
observed while applying these indices in research in ...

Wheat and barley seed system in Syria: How diverse are wheat and barley varieties and landraces from farmer’s fields?
The present study described the diversity of wheat and barley varieties and
landraces available in farmer’s fields in Syria using different indicators. Analysis
of spatial and temporal diversity and coefficient of parentage ...
Development of Salinity Models by Remote Sensing in Central and Southern Iraq
This technical report series captures and documents the work in progress of the Iraq Salinity Project, in its seven research themes, working at the regional, farm and irrigation system scales. Technical reports feed into ...
Comparison of Soil Compaction Under Conventional Agriculture and Conservation Agriculture Practices
This study took place at the National Institute for Field Crops in Tunisia, under the Project:" to Support Development of Conservation Agriculture" (a project funded by the French Agency for Development). In this study we ...
Bayesian Estimation of Shrubs Diversity in Rangelands under Two Management Systems in Northern Syria
The diversity of shrubs in rangelands of northern Syria is affected by the grazing management
systems restricted by the increase in human and livestock populations. To describe and estimate
diversity and compare the rangeland ...

Performance of indigenous and exotic×indigenous sheep breeds fed different diets in spring and the efficiency of feeding system in crop–livestock farming
Genetic variation in feed efficiency may have a significant impact on sheep production in integrated crop livestock
farming systems in dry areas, where the shortage and poor quality of feed is widespread. Thus, the present ...
