The southern part of the Mediterranean basin is among the regions that are characterized by recurrent droughts and it is threatened by the effects of climate change. To deal with these problems in wheat, improved techniques of rain water conservation and adapted varieties need to be developed. Co...

Tillage system and genotype effects on early vigor and water use in bread wheat in the Mediterranean region
Drought is a major factor affecting cereal production in most the rainfed areas of West Asia and North Africa. Recen increases in drought frequency in Morocco have resulted in the yields of field crops being extremely variable and generally low. The objective of this study is to assess drought se...

Approaches that can help reduce future water shortages and increase food production in the Mediterranean region include the capture of more rainwater and better use of scarce irrigation water. The objective of this study is to evaluate the additive effect of combining zero tillage, supplemental i...

Combined effect of tillage system, supplemental irrigation and genotype on bread wheat yield and water use in the dry Mediterranean region
Selecting appropriate crops and applying deficit irrigation can help increase water productivity in water-limited regions such as the Mediterranean. The objective of this study was to develop water production functions of major cereal and legume crops under the same environmental and management c...
