Does tillage should be an evaluation factor in the breeding program for major cereal and legume crops ?
Conservation agriculture practices are becoming more important in rainfed drylands due to its potential to minimize climatic risk, reduce soil erosion and improve soil quality and water availability. Due to minimum disturbance ...
Why Conservation Agriculture in rainfed drylands in Morocco
Crop yield in the rainfed Mediterranean environment in Morocco, the hot spot for climate change, is highly affected by rainfall variability, temperature extremes, and declining soil quality. Several research findings ...
Diversified Cropping System: Relay Intercropping of Lentil with Quinoa (Morocco)
A Diversified Cropping System (DCS) results in a more resilient and intensive cropping
system. In this case quinoa was introduced as an intercrop for lentil. The yield of lentil is
not reduced; hence the system becomes ...
Strategic Research Trials on Genotype × Environment × Management in Major Cropping Systems using Advance Generation Genotypes and Mega-varieties
Declining rainfall with an increasing variability, increasing temperature extremes, and declining
soil fertility are threatening crop production and ultimately food security in the CWANA region.
Also, the presence of ...
Genotype and agronomic management interaction to enhance wheat yield and water use efficiency in the Mediterranean rainfed environment of Morocco: I. Field data analysis
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum subsp. durum), considered better drought tolerant, is the most cultivated wheat in Morocco and in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region. The region, including Morocco, predominantly ...
Morocco to convert 1M Ha to conservation Agriculture - How ICARDA/INRA Fit in
Conservation Agriculture is a sustainable agricultural production system guided by three core principles: no (or minimal) tillage to the soil after harvest; permanent soil cover to lock in moisture and reduce evaporation; ...
Diagnosis of the current state of conservation agriculture in Morocco and economic review
Morocco, as all North African countries, is highly vulnerable to the consequences of climate change because of its strong exposure to increases in temperature, changes in freshwater availability, and population growth. ...
No-Till Farming in the Maghreb Region Enhancing Agricultural Productivity and Sequestrating Carbon in Soils
In the Maghreb region, productivity of rainfed and irrigated crops has been threatened due to social
and technological constraints, water scarcity, low and variable rainfall, reduced soil fertility and
quality, and improper ...
Technical Report: Grain yield and forage yield of dual-purpose barley varieties as affected by cutting frequency under Mediterranean rainfed conditions
Barley is considered an important cereal because of its wide adaptability to different soil and
climatic conditions and its suitability for a variety of purposes specially food and feed for
humans and livestock. Availability ...
