(e) Crop production

The projects focus mainly on fisheries, poultry production, nutrition, crop production, forestry and livestock raising.

Iran estimates its crop losses by comparing the actual production of each crop in each of the affected provinces during 1991 with the expected production of those crops, based on a statistical analysis of crop yields over a period of 11 years from 1986 to 1996.

For the fifth consecutive year, rain shortfalls resulted in crop failure and poor livestock production.

The number of farmers reached by such schemes in illicit crop production areas is still insufficient.

The livelihood component includes learning processes concerning skills development involving existing alternative sources of income such as abaca fibre production, handicraft making and cash crop production.

These conditions render the rural population vulnerable to the influence of drug trafficking and increase dependence on illicit crop production.

For each crop, Iran calculates the compensation sought by multiplying the decrease in production in 1991, which it considers to be the result of Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait, by the market price of that crop.

Rural Pakistani women are not only responsible for time and energy consuming household tasks but are also major contributors to the rural economy particularly in three sub sectors crop production, livestock production and cottage industry.

Annual crop residues (including pressed seedcake) can be burned throughout the year in local electricity generation plants, thereby smoothing out the production income cycle.

The threats to sustaining such systems, such as monoculture cash crop production, mineral extraction, environmental contamination and genetically modified seeds and technology, should be addressed.

What they want are implements to increase their production something to fertilize the soil, something to protect their crop and to bring it to a market.

Areas of low rainfall, a delayed growing season, mid season crop water stress or low crop production can be identified and cross referenced with institutional databases to identify vulnerable populations and assess the degree to which people's lives and livelihoods are likely to be affected.

Wheat is the most important crop the first crop we domesticated and the most important crop we still grow today.

Women had succeeded in breaking into male dominated cash crop production, and had benefited from the opportunities brought by community radio stations and multimedia telecommunications centres in rural areas.

GIEWS has been providing regular bulletins on food crop production and markets at the global level and situation reports on a regional and country by country basis since 1975.

Iran estimates the alleged reduction in crop quality by comparing crop prices in the Southern Provinces in 1991 with national crop prices.

Auto crop

And then another six can be made robustly, competitively, from cellulosic ethanol and a little bio diesel, without interfering at all with the water or land needs of crop production.

Protection of the environment is a high priority, as illicit crop cultivation and illicit drug production result in environmental degradation and the safe disposal of seized chemical substances is essential.

These include crop rotation, increased crop diversification, and introducing integrated pest management systems.

The Panel, therefore, finds that Saudi Arabia has not provided sufficient evidence either to establish the nature and extent of the losses incurred by Shadco due to the reduction of crop production, or to demonstrate a link between crop damage at Shadco's farms and Iraq's invasion and occupation of Kuwait.

18. Invites States to sustain and increase international cooperation and, where needed, technical assistance to countries implementing policies and programmes against drug production, including illicit crop eradication and alternative development programmes

However, GHG emissions are generated in sugar cane production (because of the use of the fertilizers and burning at harvest) and in transporting the crop from the field to the plant.

Production of paddy rice, the main staple crop, has increased by 20 per cent over the past two years but has reached only 50 per cent of the pre war level.

In addition, the FAS used satellite imagery to monitor domestic crop production areas in support of work carried out by the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation Service (redesignated the Farm Service Agency in October 1994).

LONDON In the 1960 s, the Green Revolution which included the development of high yielding crop varieties, the expansion of irrigation infrastructure, and the distribution of modern fertilizers and pesticides to developing country farmers bolstered agricultural production worldwide. But chronic hunger remains pervasive, particularly in developing countries, which are affected most by crop shortages and food price volatility.

Crop eradication and alternative development

Crop Environment Resources Synthesis model.

Decision Support System for Agrotechnology Transfer (DSSAT) is a software system that integrates crop growth models with crop, weather and soil data and estimates potential changes in crop yields and water use.

FAO, in conjunction with the Ministry of Agriculture, UNMIL and several international non governmental organizations, undertook a food monitoring and assessment exercise throughout the country to identify shortfalls in crop production and their implications for food security.

Iraq argues that Iran has not demonstrated that any loss of crops occurred or that there is any causal connection between the alleged reduction in crop production and pollution resulting from the invasion and occupation of Kuwait.

Increased, well targeted assistance is needed, backed up by new partnerships (including with multilateral development banks and bilateral donors) to reach more segments of the population vulnerable to the influences of drug trafficking and illicit crop production.

Other uses of remote imaging together with data from the ground included maps of soil salinity, biomass, crop management, and crop yields.

Gambia reported a meteorological network of 15 synoptic stations, 44 rainfall stations and 18 crop monitoring stations for observation of crop phenology.

It's a research crop marijuana grow room.

And it will produce a food crop.

The oilseed crop comprises three essential parts.

Calls upon the International community to increase its assistance to enhance the efforts of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan to curb the Plantation of Opium Poppies, production and trafficking of narcotics and to strengthen crop substitution program in Afghanistan.

The fundamental objective of the International Year of Rice implementation is to promote improved production and access to this vital food crop, which feeds more than half the world's population while providing income for millions of rice producers, processors and traders.
