In this study, farm level technical efficiency (TE) and its determinants were
investigated. A stochastic Cobb-Douglas (CD) production frontier was used to provide
estimates of input-oriented TE for a sample of 100 rain fed farms in two Palestinian...

tTo generate information on animal fiber quality traits in Central Asia, as a prelude to geneticimprovement, fiber samples of 495 cashmere goats from Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan, and448 mohair goats from these two countries and Kyrgyzstan were...

Tissue culture may be one of the possible sources of variation for crop improvement. To assess
variation and stability in regenerated plants, shoots were regenerated from the callus derived from
axillary explants of 11 grasspea genotypes, and their...

In a semi-arid environment, the main challenge for crop production is water
limitation in space and in time. Considered as appropriate tools, models are used to
evaluate the effects of water deficit on crop productivity for better irrigation
planning...

A gene conferring seedling resistance to Puccinia triticina was mapped to chromosome 2BS in the wheat Morocco. The gene was shown to be distinct and was therefore designated Lr73.

Abstract
The wheat genotype Morocco, widely susceptible to isolates...

The paper describes value chain actors and institutional arrangements along value chains, and identifies major determinants of farmers’ decision making to work with middlemen/traders ‘jabbans’ (or cheese makers), and based on those identify short...

Genetic variation in feed efficiency may have a significant impact on sheep production in integrated crop livestock
farming systems in dry areas, where the shortage and poor quality of feed is widespread. Thus, the present study
was carried out to...
