Adoption and impacts of improved varieties and seed demand analysis
There is very limited information about the national level adoption of improved wheat varieties in Morocco. With the exception of some estimates based on secondary data, the same is true for household, regional and national ...
Report on PhD training on “Modelling bioeconomic diversity of wheat-based systems: Typology analysis and soil-crop simulations using APSIM”
The objective of this training is to reflect on the wide diversity of wheat-based systems in
Tunisia and North Africa. It also aims at providing a set of tools to analyze this diversity as
well as to understand yield gaps ...
Gendered aspirations and occupations among rural youth, in agriculture and beyond: A cross-regional perspective
Based on 25 case studies from the global comparative study ‘GENNOVATE: Enabling gender equality in agricultural and environmental innovation’, this paper explores rural young women’s and men’s occupational aspirations and ...
Investigating root system architectural traits in durum wheat to improve adaptation to drought and crown rot conditions
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum) producers can experience significant yield and grain losses due to crown rot (CR) disease, caused primarily by a fungal pathogen Fusarium pseudograminearum. Losses due to CR ...
Adapting durum wheat to drought and crown rot environments
Durum wheat (Triticum turgidum L. ssp. durum) producers can experience significant yield and grain losses due to crown rot (CR) disease, caused primarily by a fungal pathogen Fusarium pseudograminearum. Losses due to CR ...
Gendered Inequity in Wages and Working Conditions for Landless Agricultural Labourers in Morocco.
Women increasingly perform the majority of agricultural work in the Global South, including the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region, yet research on the gendered dynamics of agricultural wage labour in MENA areas ...
Women, work, and wage equity in agricultural labour in Saiss, Morocco
This paper documents wages and working conditions for landless female and male agricultural labourers in Morocco. We found that higher-paid equipment-intensive tasks were predominantly assigned to men whereas women often ...
Genetic diversity in algerian durum wheat varieties (Triticum turgidum L var. durum) using microsatellite markers = Diversidade genética em variedades de trigo duro argelino (Triticum turgidum L var. durum) usando marcadores microssatélites
Characterization of germplasm by DNA-markers provides powerful tool to precise germplasm identification. This study aimed to quantify the genetic diversity and to estimate the phylogenetic relationship ...
Guidelines for Facilitating Women’s adoption of Improved Cereal Varieties in Sex-segregated Cultures Introduction
Women in the Global South play significant roles in farming but face inequalities in access to resources, land and extension support (3,4,5). Their roles in farming cereals, often perceived as male crops, are especially ...
