Mind the Gap: Improving Dissemination Strategies to Increase Technology Adoption by Smallholders_ Final workshop report (minutes)
This is the final workshop report of the Mind the Gap project. 32 participants from NARES partners GIZ, CTV and farmer organizations exchanged about the results of the projects
Use of Conservation Agriculture in Crop-Livestock Systems (CLCA) in the Drylands for Enhanced Water Use Efficiency, Soil Fertility and Productivity in NEN and LAC Countries – Project Progress Report: Year I - April 2018 to March 2019
The CLCA project goal is to sustainably increase production and enhance climate resilience of small farmers’ communities and their crop-livestock production systems in drylands. To develop in participation with smallholder ...
Seed Info no. 57
Seed Info aims to stimulate information exchange and regular communication between seed staff in the Central and West Asia and North Africa (CWANA) region and beyond. Its purpose is to help strengthen national seed programs ...
Spatio-temporal genetic diversity in Indian barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) varieties based on SSR markers
Barley is a popular cereal crop of nutritious and industrial importance and there is always a scope to improve a particular crop in view of its value and demand. Spatio-temporal studies discuss the diversity level among ...
Barley yield formation under abiotic stress depends on the interplay between flowering time genes and environmental cues
Since the dawn of agriculture, crop yield has always been impaired through abiotic
stresses. In a field trial across five locations worldwide, we tested three abiotic stresses,
nitrogen deficiency, drought and salinity, ...
Genotyping and Genome Wide Association Studies in Barley
The training on “Genotyping and Genome Wide Association Studies in Barley” was organized from 17 to 22 June 2019 at ICARDA, Rabat, Morocco. The course was originally planned and designed to support the M.Sc. and Ph.D. ...
Research innovations on dual-purpose barley genotypes for green forage and grain feed
Report on Farmers day organized at ICARDA Research Station, Marchouch in Morocco on 28 April 2019
Factors Influencing Farmers’ Decisions to Adopt Improved Technologies in Semi-Arid Farming Systems: A case study of the barley variety Kounouz and feed blocks technology in Tunisia
Despite the high potential of innovative agricultural technologies to boost productivity, incomes, and food security for farmers, the adoption rate by smallholders in Tunisia’s livestock-barley systems is very slow. This ...
Can ruminant metabolizable energy of barley, chickpea and lentil straw be predicted using chemical composition?
This study attempted to generate simple and robust models to predict metabolizable energy (ME) content of barley, chickpea and lentil straw using chemical composition. Crude protein (CP), neutral detergent fiber (NDF), ...
Genome Wide Association Study of Spot Blotch at Seedling and Adult Plant stages in Morocco and India
Barley spot blotch caused by Cochliobolus sativus (Bipolaris sorokiniana) is one of the major constrains to barley production worldwide in warmer regions. This study was undertaken to identify and estimate effects of loci ...
