Systematic review on the impacts of community-based sheep breeding programs on animal productivity, food security, women's empowerment, and identification of interventions for climate-smart systems under the extensive production system in Ethiopia
Machine learning-integrated hydrogeochemical and spatial modeling of groundwater quality indices for seawater intrusion and irrigation sustainability in coastal agroecosystems of Skhirat Region, Morocco
Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) Protocols Used in Carbon Trading Applied to Dryland Nations in the Global South for Climate Change Mitigation
Genetic diversity and genome-wide association study of yellow rust resistance in elite spring bread wheat genotypes in Ethiopia
Background Yellow rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. Tritici (Pst), is one of the most destructive wheat diseases in the world. It can cause, yield losses of up to 100% during severe outbreaks. The use of resistant wheat varieties is...
Mesoporous biochar reshapes soil water dynamics under shallow groundwater: interactions with nitrogen management
Shallow groundwater tables influence nearly one-quarter of global croplands, yet the role of biochar in such hydropedological settings remains poorly understood. This study investigated how mesoporous biochar interacts with nitrogen...
Genetic evaluation of growth rate and efficiency-related traits in Menz sheep
Growth efficiency traits are economically important and their genetic improvement is essential in small ruminants, particularly under conditions of limited feed availability. Data on body weights of Menz sheep collected from 2009 through 2023 in...
Spatial Cost–Benefit Analysis of Conservation Agriculture Implementation in Siliana Governorate, Northeast of Tunisia
An investigation was made into the efficiency of conservation agriculture implementation in Siliana governorate, northeast Tunisia, through a spatial cost–benefit analysis using the Desertification Mitigation Cost-Effectiveness modeling approach...
