    As the world’s population continues to rise, there is
    an ever increasing demand for our land to produce
    a diverse range of products such as food, timber,
    and fuel. Our growing need for these goods is
    leading to higher levels of competition between
    different land uses and, as a result, land users. Not
    only is the quantity of land available for production
    under current technical and economic conditions
    limited, but there is also growing evidence that the
    quality of our land is degrading (Safriel, U. N. 2007;

    Sustainable Land Management (SLM) are required to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN). SLM options are fitted to the social, economic and ecological contexts. The high contextual diversity of drylands in particular prevents the design and application of “uniform blanket” policies to promote SLM over large scales where significant impact is expected.

    Under the Economics of Land degradation initiative (ELD), scientists from ICARDA are collaborating with developments to develop the GeOC tool. It is a new web-based GIS tool to define context specific options for sustainable land management required to achieve Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN).
    This video illustrates the interface of the SLM tool of the GeOC tool.

    With around one third of the world’s arable land degraded, estimated annual losses of 6.3 to 10.6 USD trillion, and a projected need to increase food production from land by 70 per cent by 2050, we simply cannot afford to neglect the loss of potential production from careless land management. Whenever land is not producing at its potential,it is an under-performing asset that requires investments to ensure the future supply chains that many industries depend upon.

    The problem of rangeland degradation can be reversed through revegetation, for example through inclusion of various locally adapted native species in the reseeding. Reseeding is the process by which rangelands are rehabilitated and it has two purposes; to ‘repair’ the degenerated rangeland system, and to increase the forage available for grazing animals. It involves sowing seeds directly into their final growing position, and is applied on rangelands with an advanced degree of degradation, low plant density or poor productivity levels.

    ICARDA’s West Asia Regional Program (WARP) coordinates agricultural research and development activities in Cyprus, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, the Palestinian Authority, Syria and lowland Turkey. With its head office in Amman, Jordan, the program plays a key role in joint bilateral and regional initiatives, as well as implementing several projects.

    Gedaref State was previously known as the
    food basket of Sudan. Over several decades
    unsustainable agricultural practices that
    combined near-monocropping with low nutrient
    replenishment have led to significant degradation
    of soils, which are no longer able to sustain farmer
    livelihoods. This study found that adopting
    an integrated sustainable land use and forest
    restoration scenario could reverse the current
    land degradation trend. The integration of Acacia
    senegal with sorghum, Sudan’s primary staple

    This volume contains the presentations made at the Eighth International Conference on Dryland
    Development. It is hoped that it will serve as a repository of information on the problems and prospects of
    sustainable management of dry areas and preventing desertification, and will thus be of interest to those
    involved in research, extension, development and policy formulation for the benefit of the people of the dry areas. It is our belief it would serve as an important contribution to the objectives of the IYDD.

    Land is front and center of the sustainable
    development and climate change debates. A
    goal dedicated to Land Degradation Neutrality
    (LDN) (see Box 1) was endorsed in 2015 by the
    United Nations (UN) General Assembly as part
    of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)
    2015–2030 framework, following on from the
    UN’s Millennium Development Goals of 2000
    (UN General Assembly, 2015). SDG 15 aims to
    “protect, restore and promote sustainable use
    of terrestrial ecosystems, sustainably manage

    Successful land restoration – which must be undertaken to achieve the SDGs and UN Decade on Ecosystem Restoration goals – needs to be taken to scale by reaching large numbers of people in farming communities and by covering the huge areas of degraded landscapes in the developing world. This event will focus on the innovative Research in Development approach that embeds research within development programmes by constructing co-learning cycles amongst partners in order to boost and sustain impact.
