Supplemental Irrigation: A Promising Climate-resilience Practice for Sustainable Dryland Agriculture
Around 80 % of the world’s agricultural land is rainfed, and contributes to at least two-thirds of global food production. About 41 % of the Earth’s land area is classi- fied as dryland (ISPC 2015), wherein the farming ...
Improving Water Productivity in Irrigated Agri-food Production Systems
Fifteen professionally-trained national agricultural research trainees: 9 from Iraq, 2 from Jordan and 4 from a range of other countries (1 from Egypt, 2 from China and 1 from Japan) trained on improving water productivity ...

Evaluation of deficit irrigation for efficient sheep production from permanent sown pastures in a dry continental climate
Deficit irrigation can be a useful management tool to increase water productivity of forage and sheep
production from pastures in water deprived areas of the world. A three year study compared sheep
production from permanent ...
Output 9: Comprehensive Report Activity 9.2: Comprehensive Report of Results including Recommendations and Strategies
Actual Evapotranspiration (ETa) is the main component required to understand both hydrological and
ecological processes between the land surface and the atmosphere. Reliable spatiotemporal
measurements of ET are important ...
Physical and economic water productivity of different crops and cropping systems quantified (ICARDA)
The Indira Gandhi Nahar Pariyojana (IGNP) is an enormous multi-purpose irrigation and settlement project, implementation of which started in the late 1960s. The goal was to transport and use over l06 billion cubic meter ...
