Role of geoinformatics in ensuing global food security with special reference to dryland agroecosystems
Agriculture plays an important role in providing
food security in developing countries. Better agricultural
information is one of the key factors in understanding current
trends and status that determine food security from ...
Responses of sheep and goat under different physiological status to water restriction and salinity
Water scarcity and salinization are challenging the efficiency and the sustainability of production systems in the dry areas. This is exacerbated by the global warming. Therefore, options should be identified to reduce ...
Intra-population SNP analysis identifies signatures for grazing stress tolerance in Egyptian local goats
The need to support agricultural industries and human livelihoods in dryland environments using adapted livestock is becoming an unavoidable priority as prospects of global warming become even more evident. Here, using the ...
Water Harvesting techniques and strategies of soil and water conservation in Libya
Land degradation in massive scale and water scarcity become serious problems which are beyond the farmer’s capacity to solve in Libya. In order to plan an adequate land management, ICARDA introduces some new water techniques ...
Responses of differential barley genotypes to Moroccan isolates of Pyrenophora teres f. teres
Barley net blotch, caused by Pyrenophora teres f. teres (Ptt), is one of the most important foliar
diseases in Morocco. The disease causes appreciable yield losses under favorable environmental
conditions. To identify ...
Morphological characterization of cactus pear (Opuntia ficus-indica) accessions from the collection held at Agadir, Morocco
The North Africa region falls under arid and semi-arid climate and it is considered as a hot spot for climate change. To face feed shortage, increase income of the rural poor and to mitigate the effect of climate change, ...
Applications of geo-informatics in cactus pear research and development
Cactus pear (Opuntia ficus-indica (L.) Mill.) has been planted for forage reserves and human consumption in arid and semi-arid regions for centuries for its ability to grow in harsh conditions characterized by high ...
Vetch Summer Grazing (VSG) Under Conservative Agriculture (CA): Promising Alternative to Cereal Residue Grazing for Better Barbarian Lambs Response
This Conference paper was delivered during the 6th International Conference on Sustainable Agriculture and Environment – October 3-5, 2019, City of KONYA – TURKEY.
Breeding faba bean for resistance to Ascochyta blight
Ascochyta blight (Didymella fabae Jellis and Punithalingam)
is one of the most important foliar diseases that
affect the quality and seed yield of faba bean (Vicia faba
L.) worldwide. Breeding for resistance to Ascochyta
blight ...
Mapping and monitoring of food legumes and dryland cereal production systems
Mapping and monitoring of the agricultural production systems on a regular interval provide important
spatial matrix on the status, trend, and options for effective intervention at multiple scales. The recent
advances in ...
