I. Abidi ; R. Hamimaz ; L. Belqadi ; S.B. Alaoui |Morocco is increasingly vulnerable to climate change, as reflected by recurrent droughts and rising soil and groundwater salinization, which threaten staple crops and rural livelihoods. In this context, the introduction of drought- and salinity-[...]![]()
Article
Crop yields are increasingly threatened by intensifying droughts in southern Europe, yet the long-term, spatially explicit quantification of yield response to agricultural drought remains limited. Remote sensing can address this gap by providing[...]![]()
Article
Under drought conditions, the growing demand for irrigation water, coupled with its declining availability, poses serious risks to agricultural productivity. Meanwhile, European farmers operate within a policy framework that requires the agricul[...]![]()
Article
Understanding how seasonal weather anomalies brought by climate change impact on agricultural productivity is fundamental to food security. To allow proper site- and season-specific policy responses, micro-level assessments are needed. This stud[...]![]()
Article
The paper presents a methodological contribution to analysing the interactions between economic and environmental factors by using the Simplified International Model of Agricultural Prices, Land Use and Environment (SIMPLE) model and its gridded[...]![]()
Article
Aim of study: To identify and characterize flash droughts (FD) in areas with rainfed cereal crops under Mediterranean conditions, analyzing their effects on cereal gross primary productivity (GPP), yield, and phenology from 2000-2023. Area of st[...]![]()

A. Valjarevic ; A. Siljeg ; S. Siljeg ; F. Vujovic ; A. Sahay |North Africa is experiencing intensifying water stress due to rapid population growth, urban sprawl, and climate variability, with major implications for agriculture and human settlement in its predominantly dryland environment. This study appli[...]![]()
Article
W.Z. Shi ; K. Zhang ; Z.F. Chen ; Y.B. Xie ; G. Forzieri |Compound agricultural drought and hot events (CADHEs, co-occurring soil moisture depletion and high temperature) have intensified over the last decades and are expected to further rise in view of climate change. Such increasing climate hazards h[...]![]()
Article
Droughts have become increasingly frequent and severe globally, posing substantial threats to water resources, agriculture, ecosystems, and communities. In this study, we explore the impact of climate change projections on drought occurrences in[...]![]()
Article
I.A. Adigun ; S. Bastola ; I. Choo ; Y. Jung |Climate change poses an unprecedented threat to food security in Africa, where agricultural systems are already strained by environmental degradation and limited adaptive capacity. The continent's vulnerability is heightened by its heavy depende[...]![]()
Article
Water limitations significantly constrain crop growth and yield, yet current crop models like WOFOST often inadequately represent the cumulative impacts of drought, resulting in unreliable yield predictions. This study employs two years of field[...]![]()

M. Recepoglu ; P. Hayaloglu ; S.C. Cakir ; S. Artan ; M.A. Cakir |The surge in the global population over the past century has highlighted the importance of agricultural production, leading to many studies to boost productivity. Unlike previous studies that primarily explore agricultural productivity growth, t[...]![]()
Article
This paper evaluates the economic and environmental implications of adopting eco-efficient irrigation methods in agriculture by delving into the nuanced interplay between technological efficiency, market dynamics, and government interventions. I[...]![]()

F. Ziadat ; G. Conchedda ; F. Haddad ; J. Njeru ; A. Brès ; M. Dawelbait ; L. Li |The FAO estimates that 1660 million hectares globally are degraded due to human activities, with over 60% of this degradation affecting agricultural lands, including croplands and pastures. Given that 95% of global food production depends on lan[...]![]()
Article
Climate change has emerged as one of the most pressing global challenges in recent decades. Agricultural activities significantly influence climate dynamics, necessitating thorough investigation of their emission patterns. Using the FAO datasets[...]![]()
Article
Agriculture and food production can cause a variety of adverse environmental impacts. Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is the only standardised method so far that provides a comprehensive assessment of the environmental burden of products. LCA result[...]![]()
Article
Numerous life cycle assessments (LCA) have been performed on tomato production; however, results vary greatly due to different system boundaries and assumptions, tomato production methods, and geography. This study seeks to identify the major dr[...]![]()
Article
Desertification affects over 90% of Moroccan territory, leading to soil degradation that reduces agricultural productivity, diminishes biodiversity, and alters environmental functions. This study estimates the total economic cost of desertificat[...]![]()
Article
In Mediterranean regions, climate change is leading to reduced precipitation, along with more frequent and severe droughts, and prolonged periods of water scarcity. In this context, as reservoir levels drop dramatically, some irrigated agricultu[...]![]()

G. Elias ; G. Majdalani ; D. Renard ; G. Faour ; F. Mouillot |Drought is a keystone constraint with far-reaching implications for agro-environmental threats. Yet, drought indices are mostly hydro-meteorological or agricultural, obscuring evidence of the key role agro-ecosystem diversity plays in buffering [...]![]()
Article
This paper examines the impact of climate variability on agricultural production in 12 Moroccan regions, differentiating between rain-fed and irrigated crops. Using a spatial panel data model over 1999-2019, we analyze the impact of climatic and[...]![]()
