agricultural drought has resulted in great damage to iran in recent years and it is crucial to cope with this adversity through logical management. one attempt in this regard is to compare affected sites and prioritize them for action plans. this paper develops a methodology for agricultural drought risk analysis based on rain-fed wheat data from kermanshah province and employs it to compare af...

Crop and irrigation water use efficiencies may be improved by managing irrigation application timing and volumes using physical and agronomic principles. However, the crop water requirement may be spatially variable due to different soil properties and genetic variations in the crop across the field. Adaptive control strategies can be used to locally control water applications in response to in...

this paper shows the role of the general dynamic model in empirical research of production technology in agriculture. the model is a first order autoregressive multivariate specification, first developed by anderson and blundell. this model is general enough to nest several simpler dynamic as well as static models within it. therefore, it provides a framework for applying classical testing ...
