A user-friendly interactive tool for estimating reference ET using ASCE standardized Penman-Monteith equation
The Accurate daily reference evapotranspiration (ET) values are needed to estimate crop water demand for
irrigation management and hydrologic modeling purposes. The Bushland Reference ET Calculator (BET) was developed
to ...
Increase year-round (greenhouse and open field) vegetable production and market supply that lead to improved diets of the local population - Progress Report on Project Activities for January – December 2016
Vegetables play a vital role in ensuring healthy nutrition for population. Given the population growth in Uzbekistan, it is important to develop more productive technologies/approaches for vegetable cultivation. At the ...
Methodology for assessing and monitoring rangeland vegetation in Central Asia
Rangelands Central Asian countries occupy a total area of approximately 260×106 hm2, occupying 65% of the total land area of these five countries (Gintzburger, 2004). These rangelands are considered as the largest ...
Application of earth observation products for hydrological modeling of the Oum Er Rbia river basin
The increasing water demand over recent decades together with the climate change impacts on water resources lead to a growing shortage of water availability. Investigating and developing novel strategies to assess and ...
Conservation Agriculture for combating land degradation in Central Asia: a synthesis
This manuscript reviews scientific findings on agricultural systems, associated land
degradation and selected remedies such as Conservation Agricultural (CA) practices to
counterbalance these. In particular, this review ...
Optimizing Use of Water for Cotton Production using Evapotranspiration-based Irrigation scheduling Technique in the Fergana Valley, Uzbekistan
Irrigated agriculture is the backbone of Central Asian economies and efficient irrigation management is of crucial importance to the sustainable crop production. The ET-based irrigation scheduling method has potential to ...
Improving Water-use Efficiency through Innovative Technologies in Irrigation and Farming
The purpose of the Conclusion workshop was i) to showcase the findings to the stakeholders and to find potential development partners and donors to carry this work forward, ii) to familiarize NARES researchers with ET ...
A methodology to estimate equity of canal water and groundwater use at different spatial and temporal scales: a geo-informatics approach
Indus basin irrigation system (IBIS) is one of
the largest contiguous irrigation systems of the world. The
surface canal water supplies are far less than the crop water
demands which lead farmers to use groundwater to ...
