Pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R.Br.] production under subsistence farmer management on the sandy soils of southwestern Niger is faced with many challenges, including declining soil fertility, highly variable and scarce rainfall and poor resource base of the peasant farme…
An alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) field study was established in 2011 at the University of Wyoming Research and Extension Center in Powell, WY. The objectives of the study were to determine: a) the daily and seasonal water use and the water use efficiency (WUE) of alfalfa grown un…
This work explores how people think about water in Israel. Water in Israel and the Middle East is a scarce resource. Most of Israel's water resources are also transboundary and thus multiple actors from varying cultures and nationalities govern its use. But variance among actors…
Environmental (climatic) and economic (human) influences have contributed to the problem of water scarcity in arid and semi-arid areas of the world, particularly in the less developed countries. This has impeded economic development in these regions. Thus, the call for better me…
The central question of this research is why users of the irrigation system in Sindh, Pakistan do not organize to collectively manage this vital and scarce resource. The research tests the central hypothesis that recent changes in the agrarian structure of rural Sindh, embedded …
