Low and slow adoption of improved agricultural technologies among smallholders often frustrate technology development and promotion efforts in the developing world. That is especially true for technologies requiring high initial investment. This stud

The biophysical benefits of zero tillage (ZT) are well documented in the literature. However, the literature on its economic benefits, especially in the context of small and medium-scale farmers in the temperate developing world is scanty. Using a st

Cropping systems in the drylands of west Asia are characterized by grazing, burning or harvesting of stubbles, multiple cultivations and late sowing, which can limit yields and lead to soil erosion and degradation. There is a lack of information on m

Zero-tillage (ZT) and crop residue retention on thesoil surface—two components ofConservation Agriculture (CA)—have been identified as promising management practices for sustainableagri- cultural intensification forsome time. However, CA technolo

Many studies have shown that zero tillage ( ZT ) in combination with a surface crop residue layer – two components of conservation agriculture (CA) practice – can improve the agronomic water balance by increasing the amount of water that is readi

Three experiments were conducted to develop a bioassay method for assessing the bioavailability of prosulfocarb, pyroxasulfone and trifluralin in both crop residue and soil. In preliminary experiments, Italian ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam.), cucu

This study employs the Heckman selection model to identify factors affecting the adoption of zero tillage (ZT) and measure its yield, income, and consumption impacts among Syrian wheat producers. A stochastic production frontier model is also estimat
