optimal use of lands heavily relies on careful assessment of agro-ecological resources. the present study was aimed to zoning of suitable areas for of soybean cropping in qaresoo basin of golestan province by geographical information system (gis) and analytical hierarchy process (ahp). in this study, environmental components included: minimum, average, maximum temperatures, precipitation, slope...

The seemingly inexorable expansion of global human population size, significant increases in the use of biofuel crops and the growing pressures of multifunctional land-use have intensified the need to improve crop productivity. The widespread cultivation of high-yielding genetically modified (GM) crops could help to address these problems, although in doing so, steps must also be taken to ensur...
