R. N. Kumawat, Arun K. Misra, Mounir Louhaichi. (31/12/2014). Managing rangelands: promoting sustainable tree species “Prosopis cineraria”: A wonder tree for agroforestry in arid and semi-arid areas.
In hot, arid and semi-arid rangelands livestock numbers are growing, putting pressure on grazing lands. In these dryland regions, ICARDA is promoting drought-tolerant species as a crucial means of assisting rangeland rehabilitation efforts, helping to conserve rapidly-depleting water resources, and maintain grazing at sustainable levels. The result: a win-win situation for the agropastoral communities and the environment.
