Soil and water conservation (SWC) practices like that of erosion control and soil fertility measures were commonly practiced in the semiarid region of southern Mali since the 1980s. The SWC practices were mainly meant to increase water availability in the subsurface, reduce farm water runoff and ...

A watershed approach to managing rainfed agriculture in the semiarid region of southern Mali: Integrated research on water and land use
Land use change alters nitrate (NO3‐N) dynamics in stream water by changing nitrogen cycling, nutrient inputs, uptake and hydrological flow paths. There is little empirical evidence of these processes for East Africa. We collected a unique 2 year high‐resolution data set to assess the effects of ...

L'irrigation est une pratique tres ancienne, aussi vieille que la civilisation. C'est l'application artificielle d'eau sur Ie sol pour la production agricole. L'eau d'irrigation sert generalement II completer reau de pluie et la contribution de Ia nappe phreatique. L'ir-rigation permet d'eviter I...

This paper reviews existing methods for assessing livestock water resource use, recognizing that water plays a vital role in global food supply and that livestock production systems consumes a large amount of the available water resources. A number of methods have contributed to the development o...
