This study proposes a novel agri-environmental payment scheme aimed at saving irrigation water. The design incorporates an outcomes-based reward system, ensuring effective savings of water volumes in on-farm uses. A choice experiment (CE) was co[...]Article
The expanded use of water-intensive crops, such as maize, has exacerbated soil drying and water scarcity in watersheds with large irrigated surfaces. As we face climbing drought risks, water can be conserved in such areas by adopting agricultura[...]Article
S. Shin ; D. Aziz ; M.E.A. El-Sayed ; M. Hazman ; L. Almas ; M. McFarland ; A.S. El Din ; S.J. Burian |Agricultural land expansion is a solution to address global food security challenges in the context of climate change. However, the sustainability of expansion in arid countries is difficult because of scarce surface water resources, groundwater[...]Article

G. Mancuso ; M.C.M. Parlato ; S. Lavrnic ; A. Toscano ; F. Valenti |Agriculture is the major water user worldwide and it is expected to be negatively affected by climate change and water scarcity. The use of non-conventional water resources could be the solution to overcome this issue. In fact, treated wastewate[...]Article
O. El Mountassir ; M. Bahir ; A. Chehbouni ; D. Dhiba ; H. El Jiar |Groundwater is essential for both water supply and environmental conservation, especially in semi-arid and desert areas. Managing groundwater resources requires a thorough understanding of groundwater characteristics and dynamics. The hydrogeoch[...]Article
F. Chemak ; H. Mazhoud ; Z. Rached ; A. Gara ; R. Rahmeni ; H. Ghannem |In Tunisia, the development of the irrigated cereal sector plays a key role in the mitigation of the fluctuation of the rainfed production and to ensure a minimum of production. However, the archived yields remain under the expected potential pe[...]Article

A. Chebil ; R. Soula ; A. Souissi ; B. Bennouna |This study examines the effects of irrigation water use efficiency improvements and citrus price fluctuations on water values in the tree production systems of northeastern Tunisia. It also aims to compare water values with the real price of wat[...]Article
The relative scarcity of water resources in Algeria and their unequal distribution induce a rational use of available resources. The Zana-Gadaïne plain appears as an exemplary case study, where the difficulties posed by the problem of crop water[...]Article
Sustainable management is a prerequisite for a lake to provide a range of ecosystem services. The prioritization of needs is a difficult task, especially when the needs are in conflict and threaten water security. Lake Karla, situated in the The[...]Article
