Innovative approaches using applied mathematics for agricultural genebank mining for climate change resistant traits improve the effectiveness of breeding programs and of food security for dry areas. Dry areas represent more than 40% of global land cover and are home to over 2.5billion people.Cro...

patial self-organization of dryland vegetation constitutes one of the most promising indicators for an ecosystem’s proximity to desertification. This insight is based on studies of reaction–diffusion models that reproduce visual characteristics of vegetation patterns observed on aerial photograph...


Bastiaansen, R.Jaibi, O.Deblauwe, V.Eppinga, M.B.Siteur, K.Siero, E.Mermoz, S.Bouvet, A.Doelman, A.Rietkerk, M.[Multistability of model and real dryland ecosystems through spatial self-organization]Multistability of model and real dryland ecosystems through spatial self-organization

Studies on the enabling factors for household food security (HFS) most often used simplified econometric models looking into the links with a selected set of variables. In this research, a livelihood approach of HFS was used and aimed at determining the most significant livelihood assets for HFS ...

Groundwater resources are vital for the well-being and livelihoods of most of the ten million people living in the Dry Zone of central Myanmar. Despite this importance, there is remarkably little known or documented on the nature, extent and use of these resources. This contribution has attempted...

Reference evapotranspiration (ETo) is a key factor in determining the amount of water needed for crops, which is crucial to correct irrigation planning. FAO Penman-Monteith (EToPM) is among the most popular method to estimate ETo. Apparently sometimes it is difficult to compute ETo using Penman-M...

The use of animal draft power for soil tillage has long been a major theme of agricultural development programmes in semi-arid West Africa. The rationale for animal traction utilization ranges from increasing agricultural productivity and income to relieving the drudgery in farm work. Yet, its ad...
