Quantification of Land Degradation and Productivity of Agro-Ecosystems under Changing Climate and Land Use
Agro-ecosystems in dry areas are sensitive to changes in climate
and land use. The productivities of these agro-ecosystems are
highly variable in both spatial and temporal scales. Accurate and
up-to-date information on ...
Effect of tillage methods on productivity of winter wheat in the irrigated conditions Central Asia and the Caucasus
