Potential of Crop Simulation Models to Increase Food and Nutrition Security Under a Changing Climate in Nepal
With current trends of increasing population, decreasing arable land, and a low yearly increment rate of cereal productivity, Nepal has an annual deficit of >1.3 million tons of edible rice, wheat, and maize. This indicates the urgent need for...
Crop Yields under Climate Variability and No-Tillage System in Dry Areas of Morocco
In Morocco, the intensive use of agricultural land coupled with irregular precipitation is a serious threat to the country’s food security. Conservation agriculture especially no-tillage (NT) system has shown an important result in the semi-arid...
Genotype×tillage interaction and the performance of winter bread wheat genotypes in temperate and cold dryland conditions
Growing concerns for food security and the alleviation of hunger necessitate knowledge-based crop management technologies for sustainable crop production. In this study, 13 winter bread wheat genotypes (old, relatively old, modern, and breeding...
A Complete description of Wheat Production in Uzbekistan – now launched!
ICARDA’s researchers with financial support from the CGIAR Research Program on Wheat, have launched a book comprehensively compiles several studies conducted on different aspects of the wheat sector in Uzbekistan,
The interaction between drought stress and nodule formation under multiple environments in chickpea
Environmental stresses, particularly drought, limit symbiotic nitrogen fixation in legumes, resulting in decreased yielding capacity. Drought is one of the most important constraints limiting yield potential in crops and it is the major abiotic...
