This report describes the use of improved methodologies developed to identify suitable watersheds based on an integrated resources management concept. The approach integrates multi-disciplinary knowledge, GIS utilities, and verification in the field to develop and test a methodology to identify watersheds with specific characteristics
– in this case, the watersheds most suited to the project activities.
The objective of this process is to select suitable watersheds in which to undertake research on three project components: (i) integrating rainwater harvesting in the agricultural systems for improved productivity in Libya; (ii) integrated improvement of wheat- and barley-based cropping systems in rainfed and irrigated areas of Libya; and (iii) improvement of small ruminant productivity in Libya; in addition to cross-cutting socioeconomic components.
