Ethiopia sheep fattening data
The data shows fattening performance of rams over a period of 90 days undertaken by members of sheep fattening youth groups in Ethiopia. The data lists weights of rams from the start of fattening (day 1) and subsequent weights at 15 day interval for the entire fattening period of 90 days and corresponding profits accrued. Members are drawn youth groups in various kebeles (villages) across 3 Small Ruminant Value chain sites
Crop yields for Farming With Alternative Pollinators and monoculture techniques
These data have been taken in the BEAF project January 2015 – December 2016, funded by BMZ, “Farming with Alternative Pollinators (FAP)” to simultaneously enhance climate change resilience of agro-ecosystems and farmers’ income, Morocco, Skhirat area. We wanted to replicate the pilot project in Uzbekistan and assess, if FAP would increase yields also in another country with different environment and lower educational level. Please have a look at the experimental designs first to understand the data files. Treatment means “FAP”, Control is monoculture. The fields are separated into 75% zones (identical in FAP and control) and 25% zones, which are different in FAP and control
21st International Winter Wheat Trial - Semi Arid condition (21IWWYT-SA)
The dataset contains data from the 21st International Winter Wheat Yield Trial - Semi Arid condition (IWWYT-SA), as part of the International Nursery data for Winter Facultative Wheat report for 2019. The genotypes developed by IWWIP have been tested in replicated trials in multilocations. It provides disease reactions, quality, selections by the breeders who conducted the trials in addition to the yield of the genotypes in the locations tested
22nd International Winter Wheat Yield Trial - Irrigation condition (22IWWYT-IRR)
The dataset contains data from the 20th International Winter Wheat Yield Trial - Irrigation condition (IWWYT-IRR), as part of the International Nursery data for Winter Facultative Wheat report for 2019. The genotypes developed by IWWIP have been tested in replicated trials in multilocations. It provides disease reactions, quality, selections by the breeders who conducted the trials in addition to the yield of the genotypes in the locations tested
Weather and crop model data for three sites in Central Asia (1951-2050)
The presented data was collected as part of the project: "Collaborative Research Project on Sustainable Soil Management to Enhance Agricultural Productivity in Central Asia". The topic is the simulation of crop productivity in irrigated areas of Central Asia (Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan)

Phone farm survey about the impact of COVID-19 on small crop-livestock production households in Zaghouan, Tunisia
This survey aims at documenting the impact of COVID-19 on farmers performances and household livelihoods in central semi-arid Tunisia. The survey was conducted by phone, during the COVID confinement period (May 2020) with 100 representative and randomly selected farmers who were initially targeted. Only 70 farmers were considered as valid for analysis and are reported in this dataset. The survey is composed of 7 separate sections, including i) farm and farmers (households) characteristics, including structural attributes, land use and dominant agricultural activities; ii) scoring questions related to the impact of COVID-19 on different labor-related issues; iii) scoring questions related to the impact of COVID-19 on farm marketing aspects; iv) scoring questions reflecting farmers perceptions about the impact of COVID-19 on policies; v) scoring questions about farmers perception regarding the impact of COVID-19 on system productivity (all crops and livestock activities included); vi) scoring questions related to farmers perception about the impact of COVID-19 on household food security; and finally vii) farmer’s statement of any future structural and land use changes they are planning to cope with COVID-19 and similar chocks. The majority of data embedded in this dataset is thus collected on a Likert scale (0-5). The dataset is highly useful for the good illustration of major difficulties faced by farmers, especially smallholder crop-livestock, during the pandemic crisis
