Groundwater is a vital water resource for economic, agricultural, and domestic purposes in arid regions. To reduce water scarcity in arid regions, recently, remote sensing and GIS techniques have been successfully applied to predict areas with p[...]Article
E. Aivazidou ; D. Aidonis ; N. Tsolakis ; C. Achillas ; D. Vlachos |As agriculture and industry exploit more than 90% of the global freshwater resources, water overuse and degradation have emerged as critical socio-environmental challenges for both nations and corporations. In this context, the water footprint c[...]Article
Agricultural water appropriation has undergone rapid changes in recent decades, but estimates of global water appropriation have not been updated with the latest data and consistent methods. Documenting these changes is challenging given the het[...]Article
In the last two decades, research on water resource monitoring and management has mainly been aimed at reducing irrigation water volume and energy consumption [...]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
D. Masseroni ; F. Gangi ; A. Galli ; R. Ceriani ; C. De Gaetani ; C. Gandolfi |Border irrigation is one of the most ancient but, at the same time, still widely applied irrigation methods across the world. Due to the intrinsic characteristics of the method, the water volumes involved are often difficult to measure and this [...]Article
Scarcity of water has emerged as a major problem globally due to climate change and population growth, especially in semi-arid and arid regions. Egypt is currently experiencing serious water challenges due to its limited water resources. The wat[...]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
N. Beithou ; A. Qandil ; M.B. Khalid ; J. Horvatinec ; G. Ondrasek |Food security is an essential issue for human survival and civilization. Whenever food–water security is in doubt, the community is negatively affected. Globally, Jordan is the second most water-stressed country, located in an arid, politi[...]Article
Irrigated agriculture accounts for ∼90% of anthropogenic freshwater consumption, is deployed on 22% of cultivated land, and provides 40% of global food production. Expanding irrigation onto currently underperforming rainfed croplands is cr[...]Article
Article
Water is the most limiting natural resource in many Mediterranean areas of southern Europe, and this, together with the actual scenario of climate change (CC), promotes a framework of uncertainty and creates major challenges concerning the susta[...]Article
The coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pandemic had a great impact on the agricultural sector, especially in developing countries. In particular, it caused exceptional challenges to small and local-scale farmers. Field questionnaires and interv[...]Article
Groundwater forms the basis for millions of rural and urban livelihoods in the Global South. Its use for irrigation has spurred widespread socio-economic development in various areas but has also led to aquifer overdraft and related socio-enviro[...]Article
J.A. Martínez-López ; R. López-Urrea ; A. Martínez-Romero ; J.J. Pardo ; J. Montero ; A. Domínguez |Scarcity of water resources is one of the main constraints on agricultural activity in arid and semi-arid areas. Despite the great technological development over recent decades, farmers are demanding methodologies and tools adapted to their trai[...]Article

Uhlenbrook |The United Nations Food Systems Summit aimed to chart a path toward transforming food systems toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goals. Despite the essentiality of water for food systems, however, the Summit has not sufficiently consid[...]Article
N.H. Ajroudi ; B. Dhehibi ; A. Lasram ; H. Dellagi ; A. Frija |This study aims to analyse Tunisian farmers ability to pay (ATP) in a citrus area and propose a penalising price strategy based on the block-pricing process to decrease over-irrigation without affecting farmers incomes. The methodology is base[...]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
M.A. Abdeladhim ; L. Fleskens ; J. Baartman ; M. Sghaier ; M. Ouessar ; C. Ritsema |Water harvesting techniques (WHTs) are important climate change adaptation measures to better manage rainwater for domestic and agricultural purposes, but which WHT to plan where is subject to sustainability considerations. Moreover, suitability[...]Article
