The main objective of this study is to present an improved modeling technique called Vegetation ET (VegET) that integrates commonly used water balance algorithms with remotely sensed Land Surface Phenology (LSP) parameter to conduct operational vegetation water balance modeling of rainfed systems at the LSP’s spatial scale using readily available global data sets. Evaluation of the VegET model ...

Temporal NDVI signatures of the following land cover types in the Aral Sea Basin (ASB) were analyzed in MODIS data 2000–2012: Wetlands, bare land, water surfaces, natural vegetation and rainfed agriculture (in mountainous regions), low vegetation, rice cropping systems. Only the last class refers to cropland. All other classes were targeted to separate non-cropland or rainfed agriculture from t...

Effective weather forecast information helps smallholder farmers improve their adaptation to climate uncertainties and crop productivity. The main objective of this study was assess the impact adoption on We coupled agent-based productivity models farmers’ management decisions maize under different rainfall scenarios in Ethiopia. A household survey conducted with 100 households from 5 villages ...

Rice is the most important human food crop in world, directly feeding more people than any other crop. Tunga Bhadra Project (TBP) command area called as bowl of Karnataka. The study was conducted Shivamogga district Karnataka, India during 2020-21 mainly for economic analysis cost and returns rainfed paddy. A purposive sampling technique used selection area, Two taluks (Shikaripura Soraba) were...

Rainfed paddy fields have a great potential to be developed in Indonesia, especially Central Java. However, water irrigation management, drought stress, pest and disease infestation low nutrients that affect yield remain the constraints. Unpredictable climate pattern is also limiting factor cultivation of rainfed fields. This narrative review aims identify discuss solutions problems exist incre...

Climate change is seriously impacting the well-being of rural agro-pastoralists whose main livelihoods depend on rainfed agriculture. This study examined factors that influence farmers' decisions to climate adaptation measures. The sampled 411 agro-pastoralist farmers and used factor analysis extract correlated uncorrelated adjustment strategies. These strategies include; Crop diversification, ...

The dry spells are severe obstacles to rainfed agriculture in Sahelian countries. farmers believe supplemental irrigation is an excellent way adapt spells. In this study, we analyzed the contribution of food security and compared profitability different types ponds constructed by northern Burkina Faso. Human cereal requirement was used as indicators analyze security. criteria for analyzing sele...

Unprecedented global climate change caused by human actions is becoming a challenge to agricultural systems’ ability meet and sustain production demands for food raw materials the increasing world population. Climate has not spared district, resulting in extreme weather events such as droughts, erratic rainfalls frosty winter days within district. Smallholder agriculture Sub-Saharan Africa main...

Water deficit is an important factor limiting crop growth all over the world. In order to evaluate genetic variation, heritability and the interrelationship between agronomic traits, twenty chickpea genotypes were cultivated in two separated randomized complete block experiments with three replications under normal irrigated and rainfed conditions. The experiments were carried out at the Agricu...
