In Tunisia, lentil (Lens culinaris subsp.
culinaris Medik.) is cultivated in arid and semi-arid
areas. Terminal drought and heat stresses during the
end of cycle causes signifcant yield losses. Selection of short cycle varieties could be the best...
Phosphorus (P) is a major limiting nutrient reducing crop yields especially in weathered soils of the subtropics and tropics. P exhibits poor mobility and availability to plants in soil. To overcome P deficiency in soil, phosphatic fertilizers are...
In Morocco, cereal production is below the expected potential. The adoption of best
agricultural practices that reduce vulnerability to climate is a major requirement. No-tillage (NT)
agriculture is a system that could improve cereal production by...
The objective of this study was to investigate the fermentation characteristics and nutritional value of A. sativa genotypes ensiled either solely or in combination with P. purpureum 16791. Three different A. sativa genotypes (SRCPX80AB2806, ILRI...
The aim of this paper is twofold. The first objective is to measure the technical efficiency of mixed crop-livestock (CL) smallholder producers operating under conservation agriculture systems in Tunisian rainfed areas. The second objective is to...
In arid and semi-arid areas, a shortage of soil moisture limits rainfed crop growth and consequently reduces crop yield. By adding a small amount of water, supplemental irrigation can boost crop yields dramatically. The objective of this study was to...
In order to contribute to the reduction of nutritional deficiencies in Morocco, this study was undertaken to develop a healthier tortilla with higher iron and protein, while maintaining adequate technological and sensory qualities. Composite durum...
