Determination of Irrigation Depths using a Numerical Model and Weather Forecast
Effect of a scheme of determining irrigation depth using numerical simulation for crop response to irrigation and weather forecast was tested for wheat cultivation in the semi-arid region of Jordan. Drip irrigation system, ...
Restoring Degraded Rangelands in Jordan: Optimizing Mechanized Micro Water Harvesting Technique Using Rangeland Hydrology and Erosion Model (RHEM)
Jordan’s rangelands, the so called Badia, home of the Bedouins, are threatened through a combination of over-exploitation of the ecosystem services and a changing climate towards drier seasons and highly erratic rainfalls. ...
Improved Jameed Processing for Small Scale Sheep Dairy Farms in Jordan
Jameed is an important dairy product in Jordan that has been produced in the region
for centuries and used as a main ingredient in popular traditional cuisine called Mansaf.
Jameed is a hard dry skimmed yogurt, mainly ...
Effect of simulated irrigation in wheat cultivation in Jordan
To enhance net income from limited water resources, Fujimaki et al. (2014) presented a scheme for determining irrigation depth using a numerical model of crop response to irrigation and quantitative weather forecast. To ...
Evaluation of Opuntia ficus-indica as a multi-purpose species under west Asia conditions
The agronomic potential of Opuntia ficus-indica (L.) Mill. a multi-purpose crop is becoming increasingly apparent in arid and semi-arid regions. Nevertheless, the main limitation for the adaptation and distribution of O. ...
Crop breeding for the development of climate resilient crops: Approaches at ICARDA
Crop production has been challenged by abiotic and biotic constraints since its inception. However, the magnitude and intensity of these stresses are increasing dramatically due to climate change causing recurrent droughts, ...
