Résumé : |
Water management for agriculture is an old and contemporary concern in Morocco. By its research programs over the last three decades, INRA has developed significant knowledge and skills on techniques for controlling irrigation water on the field. The objective of this part is to summarize what has been achieved on water management technologies for crops in the different national agricultural production zones.
In order to make available to development services the results of research relating to the management of irrigation, a summary of the results obtained over all the INRAs regional centers has been produced. The results reported in this chapter concern the crop water requirements, the comparison of new and traditional irrigation techniques that are still dominant, the response of crop yields to deficit irrigation, irrigation management methods and the application of modeling to irrigation programming. The summaries focused on the main practiced crops such as fruit trees, date palm, cereals, industrial crops, vegetables and the main forage crops. As a conclusion, it becomes indisputable that strengthening the resilience of Moroccan agriculture depends on controlling the use of irrigation water on the field. Despite the multiple obtained results, the multiplication of irrigation research programs must continue further to cope with the effects of climate change that will be more severe in the future. |
