The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of indirect land tenure on irrigated farms sustainability in Tunisia. This analysis is based on the farm sustainability assessing method (IDEA-Indicateurs de Durabilité des Exploitations Agricoles= Farm Sustainability Indicators) adapted to the Tunisian context. It is based on the calculation of in...
Irrigated olive grove agroforestry systems in the Southern Mediterranean have rarely been studied. In the context of increased interest for agroecological approaches, this study questions why and how farmers undertake such associations, in the case of smallholder irrigated agriculture in Tunisia. The objectives were to characterize the physical str...
Treated wastewater (TWW) reuse for crop irrigation has been developing in recent decades in areas hampered by severe water shortages. However, in humid conditions, the agronomic impacts of supplementary irrigation are less and poorly documented. On the island of Réunion, we measured sugarcane yield and quality on a Nitisol over 2 years by providing...
In the irrigated plains of North Africa, the sustainability of productive resources is subject to multiple threats linked to the prevailing productivist model of irrigated agriculture. These threats, such as soil degradation and unequal access to resources, markets, and information, prompt farmers to mobilize depleting natural resources, including ...
Sur le territoire des Coteaux de Gascogne, agriculteurs, chercheurs et gestionnaires de l’eau s’engagent pour une transition agro-écologique des systèmes de culture irrigués. C’est dans ce contexte qu’en 2019, un projet pilote a permis de réaliser une première évaluation des performances agro-économiques des systèmes de cultures irrigués établies s...
In the Coteaux de Gascogne area, farmers, researchers and water service managers are committed toan agro-ecological transition of irrigated farming systems. It is against this background that, in 2019,a pilot project carried out an initial assessment of the agro-economic performance of irrigatedcropping systems based on soil conservation farming pr...
La vallée inférieure du Logone est située entre les fleuves Logone et Chari dans le Sud-Ouest du Tchad. Elle est en zone soudano-sahélienne et est soumise à de fortes contraintes édapho-climatiques. L'objectif principal de cette recherche est d'évaluer et de relier la dynamique des agricultures aux variabilités climatiques à travers la télédétectio...
The objective of this study was to assess the consumption and the multiplier effect of the use of energy and irrigation water for rainfed and irrigated agriculture at the national level in Morocco. Using a social accounting matrix, the direct and indirect economic effects of subsidizing energy used by agriculture were identified. The results show t...
