Souissi, AsmaMtimet, NadhemThabet, ChokriStambouli, T.Chebil, Ali[Impact of food consumption on water footprint and food security in Tunisia]Impact of food consumption on water footprint and food security in Tunisia

A range of physical means of manipulating yam tuber dormancy was tested, including the use of temperature, water, electric shock, microwave, heat and storage treatments. Most treatments had very little practical effect on tuber dormancy though differences in dormancy length between clones were de...

Teklu, L.[Effect of Furrow Irrigation Methods Under Deficit Irrigation on Growth, Yield and Water Productivity of Tomato (Solanum Lycopersicum L.) at Dugda District, East Shewa Zone, Eastern Oromia, Ethiopia]Effect of Furrow Irrigation Methods Under Deficit Irrigation on Growth, Yield and Water Productivity of Tomato (Solanum Lycopersicum L.) at Dugda District, East Shewa Zone, Eastern Oromia, Ethiopia

Make, M.[Assessment of rain water harvesting potential for supplementary irrigation in Lume district, East Shoa]Assessment of rain water harvesting potential for supplementary irrigation in Lume district, East Shoa

Poor rainwater management (RWM) practices and resultant problems of land degradation and low water productivity are severe problems in the rural highlands of Ethiopia. The current study was undertaken at Meja watershed, which is located in the Jeldu district of Oromia region. The study investigat...

This paper calls attention to the importance of social cooperation in irrigation farming. It argues that a mere focus on the technical aspect of irrigation, disregarding its social aspects undermines the long-term benefits of irrigation to rural livelihoods. This assertion draws on lessons from s...


Dessalegn, M.[Is ‘social cooperation’ for traditional irrigation what ‘technology’ is for motor pump irrigation?]Is ‘social cooperation’ for traditional irrigation what ‘technology’ is for motor pump irrigation?

Lack of long-term hydrological monitoring makes it difficult to determine impacts of changing land use on the water dynamics for many catchments in Africa. Here we use local ecological knowledge (LEK) to explore the impacts of rapid expansion of eucalyptus agroforestry on water security in the Et...

The quantity and position of trees in a landscape can have significant impacts on farm soil and water resources. Here we present a synthesis of local knowledge studies conducted in three micro-catchments of the Blue Nile Basin (Diga, Fogera and Jeldu Woredas) exploring natural and anthropogenic d...
