Irrigated agriculture is the backbone of Central Asian economies and efficient
irrigation management is of crucial importance to the sustainable crop production. The ET-based irrigation scheduling method has potential to replace subjective daily...
Pollinator decline is acknowledged worldwide and constitutes a major subject of environmental research. Nevertheless, farmers’ efforts to protect pollinators in agricultural lands remain very limited, in particular if no compensation scheme is...
Drought is one of the most important environmental factors that limit crop production. It has been hypothesized that a limited-transpiration trait under high vapor pressure deficit (VPD) is a mechanism for water conservation leading to yield increase...
In Tunisia, Soil and Water Conservation (SWC) interventions are among the most practicable strategies to prevent and mitigate rainwater losses through surface runoff and consequential erosion of fertile soils. In this study, a small and terraced...
tImproving crop area and/or crop yields in agricultural regions is one of the foremost scientific challengesfor the next decades. This is especially true in irrigated areas because sustainable intensification of irri-gated crop production is...
Improving seed related traits remains key objective in lentil breeding. In recent years, genomic resources have shown great promise to accelerate crop improvement. However, limited genomic resources in lentil greatly restrict the use of genomics...
INTRODUCTION
Agriculture in Sudan is the principal source of income and livelihood for 60 to 80% of the population (Elgali,2010). Agriculture is divided into two main sectors; irrigated and rainfed. The irrigated sector covers about 1.8 million ha...
