Agriculture has a key role in greenhouse gas emissions.  As such, the present study aimed to evaluate the greenhouse gas emissions from wheat production in irrigated and rain-fed systems. The primary data were collected from 116 wheat farmers. The results showed that the total greenhouse gas emissions from wheat production in irrigated and rain-fed systems were 637.8 and 65.12 kgCO2eq, respecti...

the dominant agricultural land uses are included of wheat farming in the kermanshah providence in the northwest of iran. the objective of this paper is analyzing of topoclimatic zonning of the wheat dry farming areas based on overlying the climatic and topographic character tics. to achieve the exact date of stages of rain-fed wheat growing in different areas of the province, the degree-days te...

Post-anthesis drought stress is the most important problem affecting wheat production in dryland fields, specially in Mediterranean regions. The main objective of this research was to evaluate drought tolerance indices in dryland wheat genotypes under post-anthesis drought stress. The research was including two different experiments. In each experiment, twenty dryland bread wheat genotypes were...

climate change is a phenomenon that has made the most concern in communities and decision making centers. this phenomenon has important effects on different aspects of human life. one of the most important crops that are affected by climate change is wheat. accordingly, data and information of northern khorasan have been used to study the effects of climate change on rain-fed wheat yield. for t...

The present study in a two-year experiment investigated the influence of drought and sowing time on protein composition, antinutrients, and mineral contents of wheat whole meal of two genotypes differing in their water requirements. Different thermal conditions prevailing during the grain filling period under different sowing time generated a large effect on the amount of total soluble proteins...

To enhance a root trait-based selection program for rain-fed wheat breeding in Afghanistan, we simulated an efficient pre-breeding drought system. Plants were grown in 1 m pipes as control or 2 m pipes to simulate drought conditions soaking ground water up by capillary action supplemented by two different life supporting irrigations from top of the pipes (T1 and T2 droughts). T1 was used for st...
