Effect of Different Water Harvesting Techniques on Growth and Yield of Pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum) Intercropped with Cowpea (Vigina sinensis) in North Darfur.

Abstract Two field experiments were conducted for two consecutive rainy seasons of 2011/12 and 2012/13 at Umhojar Village, Kabkabiya Locality- North Darfur State, Sudan to study the effect of different rainwater harvesting techniques on growth and yield of pearl millet intercropped with cowpea. The area lies on sandy clay loam soil at Latitude 13o. 04" N and Longitude 24o.08" E,). Split plot design with four replicates was used in which five water harvesting techniques viz.; W1 (Terracing sy...

Economic Appraisal Of Fodder Crops Production Under Risk And Uncertainty In Sultanate Of Oman

ABSTRACT Irrigated agriculture for Rhodes Grass and fodder production forms the backbone of many farmers in Al-Batinah and Salalah Plain of Sultanate of Oman. Ecological deterioration and inefficient water resource use have resulted in a significant threat to the livelihoods of those most dependent on agricultural sector. Inefficient water use has led to rising ground water tables and widespread water and soil salinization has resulted. The high water demand in the region for crop production...
