Insights From a Multi-Method Recharge: Estimation Comparison Study
(Groundwater, 2018)
Although most recharge estimation studies apply multiple methods to identify the possible range in recharge values, many donot distinguish clearly enough between inherent uncertainty of the methods and other factors affecting ...

Farm water management through irrigation information for climate-smart agriculture in sub-Saharan Africa.
Scaling-up Conservation Agriculture Production System (CAPS) with Drip Irrigation by Integrating MCE Technique and the APEX Model
(Water, 2019)
The conservation agriculture production system (CAPS) approach with drip irrigation has proven to have the potential to improve water management and food production in Ethiopia. A method of scaling-up crop yield under CAPS ...
Suitability of Watershed Models to Predict Distributed Hydrologic Response in the Awramba Watershed in Lake Tana Basin
(Land Degradation & Development, 2016)
Planning effective landscape interventions is an important tool to fight against land degradation and requires knowledge on spatial distribution of runoff. The objective of this paper was to test models that predict temporal ...
Endosulfan Pesticide Dissipation and Residue Levels in Khat and Onion in a Sub-humid Region of Ethiopia
(Lecture Notes of the Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering, 2020)
Endosulfan, a mixture of α- and β-isomers, is used by farmers in the wet and dry season for khat and onion production. Khat leaf samples were collected in farmer fields at intervals of 1 h; 1, 5, 9 and 14 d after application. ...
Conservation Agriculture Saves Irrigation Water in the Dry Monsoon Phase in the Ethiopian Highlands
(Water, 2019)
Water resources in sub-Saharan Africa are more overstressed than in many other regions of the world. Experiments on commercial farms have shown that conservation agriculture (CA) can save water and improve the soil. ...
Potential for upscaling small scale irrigation (IDSS) – constraints and opportunities
(Feed the Future, 2018)
Evaluating hydrologic responses to soil characteristics using SWAT model in a paired-watersheds in the Upper Blue Nile Basin
(CATENA, 2018)
Watershed responses are affected by the watershed characteristics and rainfall events. The characteristics of soil layers are among the fundamental characteristics of a watershed and they are input to hydrologic modeling ...
Invest in small-scale irrigated agriculture: A national assessment on potential to expand small-scale irrigation in Nigeria.
(Agricultural Water Management, 2017)
Nigeria is faced with the daunting challenge to improve performance of its agriculture sector. Currently, crop production in Nigeria is predominantly rainfed; irrigation is perceived as an important means to boost agricultural ...
