The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of salinity on resource use efficiency in wheat production in central Iraq using a cross-sectional database of 270 farmers. A parametric approach used to estimate a frontier of production...
A stochastic frontier approach is used for analyzing of the environmental impacts of soil salinity in Iraq. An econometric method based on the neoclassical production theory (stochastic frontier analysis) is transformed to enable the definition and...
This work evaluated the chickpea leaf miner Liriomyza cicerina mass trapping technique as an alternative to insecticide spraying. A trap density of 2000 per ha was used. Trials were conducted in Beja during 2015 and 2016 using Nour variety. Leaves...
Surveys were conducted during 2016 and 2017 in chickpea crops to document the parasitoid species of the chickpea leaf miner (Liriomyza cicerina) in Beja and Kef sites (north-west of Tunisia). One braconid wasp species namely Opius monilicornis was...
n this study, we analyzed a representative sample of sheep farms (n = 1021) using Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and multivariate K-Mean classification, to characterize the production and feeding systems across Tunisia. We also identified and...
Viruses causing yellowing/stunting are the most important viral diseases affecting chickpea in many regions of the world including Arab countries. These diseases were thought for many years to be mainly caused by the infection with Beet western...
Faba bean (Vicia faba L.) is one of the earliest domesticated food legumes of the world. This study was designed to reveal the genetic diversity existing among 32 Ethiopian faba bean varieties grown at three locations (Sinana, Agarfa and Selka) using...
