Better Crop-Livestock Integration for Enhanced Agricultural System Resilience and Food Security in the Changing Climate: Case Study from Low-Rainfall Areas of North Africa
Increasingly frequent droughts, declining soil fertility, and poor plantanimal- atmosphere interactions are threatening the sustainability of integrated croplivestock systems in the rainfed drylands of North Africa. Previous research from around...
Pathogen diversity and mating types of Didymella rabiei isolates collected from Morocco
Ascochyta blight (Didymella rabiei) is an economically important disease of chickpea in Morocco and other parts of the world. Knowledge about pathogen diversity and their aggressiveness in the Moroccan D. rabiei population can help breeders to...
Malting Quality of ICARDA Elite Winter Barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) Germplasm Grown in Moroccan Middle Atlas
The use of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) in Morocco is still limited to food and feed despite the amplified demand by local industries for imported malt. This study aims to evaluate 36 barley elite lines for major grain physicochemical parameters...
Output 9: Comparison Between Field Data and Remote Sensing Data Analyzed Comparing Evapotranspiration Retrieved Through Various Remote Sensing based Models with Ground Measured Data
Evapotranspiration (ET) measurement on a real-time basis at a large scale with high temporal frequency is important for agricultural water use and water resource planning. Identifying the differences between potential ET and crop ET at fine...
Willingness to Pay for Irrigation Services in the Cold Winter Deserts of Uzbekistan
Irrigation facilities in the cold winter deserts (CWDs) of Uzbekistan are very traditional and poorly managed, resulting in low water use efficiency and low productivity. Improving the irrigation facilities in these deserts is a key priority for...
