期刊介绍英文:
ARAA(Agricultural Research in the Arid Areas), the first Chinese core academic journalon dryland farming launched in 1983 in China, is superintended by Chinese Ministry of Education and sponsored by Northwest Agricultural and Forestry University.ARAA primarily deals with frontiers of agricultural research in arid, semi-arid, semi-moist and drought-prone areas in northern China, inclusively covers domestic seasonal drought agricultural practice in humid areas and overseas dryland farming research trends, fully portraits cutting-edge achievements, theories,techniques and experiences in above regions in China and promptly presents the latest research advances worldwide. In general, ARAA features both applied and basic scientific research focusing on dryland farming and highlighting rational water use and irrigation farming progress. ARAA publishes innovative and practical research papers, research reports, review works and rapid communication on major columns including but not limited to crop drought resistance physiology and regulation,drought-resisting crop breeding,water-saving irrigation theories and techniques, dryland water-saving farming and cultivation techniques, crop and soil water dynamics, soil and crop nutrition, dryland agri-ecology and resources utilization, dryland agricultural machinery,drought monitoring and forecasting,dryland climate and its impact on crops, etc. Besides, a special column of Expert Forum is opened for thematic elaborations by invited dryland researchers from home and abroad.
