Improving the date production chain in the Moroccan oases through small mechanization inputs to support the governmental development strategies
Moroccan oases as other Saharan oases are a highly artificial ecosystem that have proved to be capable
of sustaining agriculture under arid climatic conditions for centuries, though it has suffered a strong
degradation ...
Ecological restoration across the Mediterranean Basin as viewed by practitioners
Restoration efforts in the Mediterranean Basin have been changing from a silvicultural to an ecological restoration
approach. Yet, to what extent the projects are guided by ecological restoration principles remains ...
Organic Carbon and Alkalinity Increase in Topsoil after Rangeland Restoration through Atriplex Nummularia Plantation
This research studied the impact of fodder shrub plantations (Atriplex nummularia Lindl.) on topsoil properties, with particular reference to organic carbon, nitrogen, and soluble salts, in the Marrakech region (central ...
Using SPOT Imagery to Assess the Effectiveness of Combating Desertification in Marrakech, Morocco
Desertification, leading to the reduction of land
productivity, is one of the major threats in dryland
ecosystems. Actions to combat desertification have become
one of the important land management practices in the ...
Sustaining Moroccan Oasis Agricultural System through Small Mechanization Inputs
Saharan oases can be highly artificial ecosystems, capable of sustaining agriculture under arid climatic conditions; the traditional
system requires some degree of collective management for plants, soil and water but has ...
Experiment set-up: SOC trials in Merchouch and Guich stations, year 1
This is the first progress report of the SOC-related component of the research, on the effects of Durum Wheat genotypes on soil organic carbon and total nitrogen in the root zone.
Experiment set-up: Silicon pot-experiment at Guich station, year 1
This is the first progress report of the Silicon-related component of the research, on the effects of bio-available Silicon on the drought tolerance of Bread Wheat genotypes.
Improving the date production chain in the Moroccan oases through small mechanization inputs to support the governmental development strategies
In Moroccan oases, date palm agricultural operations are mainly
manual and seldom implemented, contributing to palm grove
degradation.
The introduction of small mechanization may reduce
drudgery, encourage/attract youths, ...
Outline of the literature review on no tillage treatment effects on soil physical health
The research Activity “Improvement of water productivity and adaptation to climate change through the development of integrated inputs (water and nitrogen) management options” was launched in 2015, and implemented by ICARDA ...
Silicon pot-experiment at Guich station, year 1
This research activity titled “ROOT-ZONE SOC AND TN AS AFFECTED BY DW GENOTYPE AND MANAGEMENT, AND SILICON EFFECTS ON DROUGHT TOLERANCE OF BW GENOTYPES” was funded as part of the Project titled “Sustainability and ...
