| Similarly, farmers in marginal rainfed areas have planted seeds on unploughed land. |
|
| Ranobe has to depend mainly on rainfed crops and is very vulnerable in the case of any rainfall deficit. |
|
| Moreover, the planting of energy corps is also planned on so far unirrigated land that has been used as meadow land or in rainfed acrigulture. |
|
| Telica's farmers are reliant on a limited number of rainfed crops, namely beans and maize. |
|
| With limited potential and difficult climate conditions, efforts to develop rainfed crop sectors have not been fruitful so far. |
|
| It is a dangerous obstacle to the fight to reduce poverty in developing countries, which largely depend on rainfed agriculture. |
|
| These are areas inhabited by the people most strongly dependent on rainfed agriculture who are already affected by erratic rainfall patterns. |
|
| As I said earlier, the importance of agriculture in the Sahel goes without saying, but agriculture is mainly rainfed and subsistence-based. |
|
| Agriculture is traditionally based on rainfed farming, with a predominance of olive and almond crops. |
|
| In a rainfed rice field small fish can be released before the rice is planted. |
|
| Production on irrigated land remains 3-5 times higher than in rainfed areas. |
|
| The Bt cotton was aggressively marketed to small scale farmers on rainfed land as an answer to their economic problems. |
|
| Production can vary by a factor of two, especially for rainfed crops such as millet and sorghum. |
|
| Water management options range from purely rainfed to partially or supplemental irrigation through to fully irrigated crops. |
|
| Maximizing the area under rainfed agricultural production was also a priority. |
|
| They can work in their main gardens, and be ready to plant rainfed crops on time. |
|
| To compare Bt cotton and non Bt cotton under stress situations, especially rainfed conditions, and to examine problems and constraints if any, associated with the cultivation of Bt cotton. |
|
| About 60 per cent of the country's total foodgrain production Continued from page 1 is from rainfed areas. |
|
| In West Africa, drought is one of the primary constraints for both rainfed and artificially irrigated rice production, owing to poor water management. |
|
| Farmers of rainfed areas in upper parts were advised to cultivate maize crop due to rececnt rains. |
|
|
|
| In the agricultural sector rainfed crops predominate, which remains a cause for concern given the vagaries of the climate and rainfall deficit experienced in recent years. |
|
| Cost effective water storage solutions are also important to reduce risks of rainfed agriculture. |
|
| In addition to this, however, there are a number of other factors that support coordination and integration of research and technology-transfer efforts for both rainfed and irrigated lowlands outside of the Sahel. |
|
| Farmers with land holding up to five acre in canalfed and ten acres in rainfed areas are eligible to apply. |
|
| Leptosols are unattractive soils for rainfed agriculture because of their inability to hold water. |
|
| Countless terrace fields of the western escarpment were abandoned where rainfed agriculture had been practised for many centuries. |
|
| This near-rainless region is almost wholly dependent on irrigated crops along the rivers Nile and Atbara, although some rainfed sorghum is grown traditionally in Nile state when rainfall allows. |
|
| Agricultural products are split into irrigation crops, such as orange, medlar, persimmon and cherry trees, and rainfed crops, such as almonds, olives and carobs. |
|
| Agriculture, the biggest water consumer, has to improve the performance of both irrigated and rainfed production through integrated rural water development. |
|
| Populated by around 400,000 people, the department's primary economic activities include irrigated and rainfed agriculture, as well as livestock breeding and fisheries. |
|
| Drought stress causes yield reductions and sometimes total crop failures in rainfed rice areas of Asia, Africa, and Latin America. |
|
| Adaptation of semidwarf wheat cultivars to rainfed conditions. |
|
| Services for installation of irrigation systems have become in-demand lately, including both drip and rainfed irrigation rather than purchase of the equipment. |
|
| Brian Timms described the river as a complex network of interconnecting channels with permanent waterholes, lignum swamps, rainfed claypans and salt and freshwater lakes. |
