1. Excellence in Agronomy 2030: A new CGIAR-wide initiative to deliver agronomy solutions at scale Required increases in crop production and productivity in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) will not happen without the increased use of appropriate agronomic practices. While several thousand new varieties of nearly all key crops have been produced in the past decade, recent increases in yields in specific countries have only happened when such varieties received the right agro-inputs and management. That said, agronomy is often highlighted as an area that has not delivered impact at scale in SSA, or... B. Vanlauwe, T. Amede, F. Baudron, P. Chivenge, M. Devare, K. Saito, J. Kihara, V. Nangia, P.

2. Crop water requirements, biomass and grain yields estimation for Sulla (Hedysarum coronarium L.) using cropwat in semi-arid regions of Tunisia Dwindling water resources and increasing food requirements require greater efficiency in water use, both in rainfed and in irrigated agriculture. Regulated deficit irrigation provides a means of reducing water consumption while minimizing adverse effects on yield. With the current water shortage in Africa improving crop water use is vital especially in the arid and semi-arid regions. Models can play a useful role in developing practical recommendations for optimizing crop production under... R. Hajri, M. Rezghui, M. Mechri, M. ben younes Download paper
3. Decision-Making Tools in Soil Management and Plant Nutrition On-Farm Research and Observation Plot: Between Reality and Challenges In this presentation, we will address a number of decision-making tools and assess their relevance and limitations for the Mediterranean and Tunisia's agricultural conditions. Decision-making tools can be classified, based on the scale, to different levels, ranging from national and regional scale to farm scale. On a large scale, an agricultural policy can be drawn based on the governmental agricultural plans, and soil maps can be adopted as a decision-making tool and thus guide support in... M. Mechri
