أفضل الممارسات في إدارة أغنام العواس 9 – معاملة التبن باليوريا
هذا الكتيب هو جزء في سلسلة من عشرة أجزاء تتناول المبادئ/الخطوط التوجيهية الفنية التي تصف ”أفضل الممارسات لإدارة أغنام العواس“ وهي سلالة الأغنام السائدة في عديد من بلدان الشرق الأوسط. وتستهدف السلسلة مربي الأغنام ومصنّعي الحليب، وتؤمن لهم َ نصائح...
Influence of feeding Mediterranean food industry by-products and forages to Awassi sheep on physicochemical properties of milk, yoghurt and cheese
Feeding agro-industrial by-products and unconventional forages, rich in potentially anti-nutritional factors, may influence the quality of the raw milk and the dairy products prepared therefrom. The aim of the present study was to determine side...
Initial Assessment of Medicinal Plants Across the Libyan Mediterranean Coast
The medicinal plants of the Libyan Mediterranean Coast represent an opportunity to reduce rural poverty in the arid and semi-arid ecosystems due to their water use efficiency, low costs of collection and cultivation, high economic returns per...
Graphic Analysis of Trait Relations and Genotype Evaluation in Durum Wheat
Trait profiles of genotypes and trait relations are frequently influenced by unpredictable conditions in the Mediterranean rainfed regions. Thus, genotype selection should be based on multiple traits in variable environments within the target...
Potential use of treated wastewater for supplemental irrigation of cereals Algeria
This report explores the different aspects of using treated wastewater as a source of supplemental irrigation for enhancing productivity under rainfed conditions in Algeria.
Effect of shallow tillage, moldboard plowing, straw management and compost addition on soil organic matter and nitrogen in a dryland barley/wheat-vetch rotation
Sustainability of dryland cropping is a major issue in the typical Mediterranean climatic environment of West Asia and North Africa. Management of crop residues and soil organic matter (SOM) and its interrelationship with tillage and crop...
Genetic Similarity Analysis in Lentil Using Cross-Genera Legume Sequence Tagged Microsatellite Site Markers
Molecular markers have emerged as useful tools to assess the genetic diversity across crops. In lentil, molecular markers are limited. The objective of the study was to explore cross-genera transferability of sequence tagged microsatellite site...
Assessing genetic diversity of Hamdani sheep breed in Kurdistan region of Iraq using microsatellite markers
The genetic variation in Hamdani sheep in the Kurdistan region of Iraq was studied using 35 microsatellite markers. All 35 markers were found to be highly polymorphic. The mean number of observed alleles ranged from four at BMS1494 to twenty...
Contour Laser Guiding for the Mechanized “Vallerani” Micro-catchment Water Harvesting Systems
Mechanized construction of micro-catchments for water harvesting (WH) was successfully tested in the Badia (dry rangeland) areas in Syria and Jordan, using the “Vallerani” plow, model Delfino (50 MI/CM), manufactured by Nardi, Italy. The plow...
Performance and Adaptation of the Vallerani Mechanized Water Harvesting System in Degraded Badia Rangelands
Rainwater harvesting in micro-catchments such as contour ridges and semicircular bunds is an option for utilizing the limited rainfall, improving productivity and combating land degradation in dry rangeland areas (Badia). However, implementation...
