Description

Length of the growing perion in the Jebel Wastani area.

Characterisation of the agricultural environment in Jebel Zawia and in Jebel Wastani with a view to develop management plans for areas with valuable plant biodiversity (Idleb Rural Development Project)

Methodology: The moisture- and temperature-limited growing period results from the combination of both moisture-limited and temperature-limited growing periods (most limiting factor method). The moisture-limited growing period is defined as the period for which the ratio of actual evapotranspiration (AET) to potential evapotranspiration (PET) is higher than 0.5. The temperature-limited growing period is defined as the period for which the average temperature is higher than 5���������������°C.
