Soil organic carbon changes after seven years of conservation agriculture in a rice–wheat system of the eastern Indo-Gangetic Plains
Sequestration of soil organic carbon (SOC) is an important strategy to improve soil quality and to mitigate climate change. To investigate changes in SOC under conservation agriculture (CA), we measured SOC concentrations after seven years of...
Estimating water consumption rates more effectively
Understanding the relationship between evapotranspiration and available soil moisture yields critical information on water consumption and crop-water productivity.
Strengthening the Participation of Women in Wheat Production Systems
Our understanding of the constraints holding back Africa's women farmers and entrepreneurs is improving - thanks to an ICARDA-managed wheat initiative.
