Assessment of deficit irrigation efficiency. Case study: Middle Sebou and Innaouene downstream

Future projection shows that the availability of freshwater per capita will decrease to 560 m3/year by 2030 in Morocco. In this realm of adopting efficient irrigation, alternatives become a priority to overcome water shortage. The presented study aims to investigate theoretically the likelihood of i...
