Abstract

As it is very well known, and mentioned in the previous articles of the present author, vast majority of billions of plant propogators have limited power of interference and control of the complex factors affecting crop productivity at natural conditions, especially under the pressure of cost-profit ratio and environmental concerns at the global warming era.
Here it will be attempted to review some locally proven promising performances of some practices and their potentials in terms of productivity and water use efficiency (WUE) within the framework of sustainable agriculture at changing climatic and environmental conditions. The aim here is attracting attention to the higher potential of integrating some of them for higher water economy and productivity.
Considering the considerable differences in popularity of practices in different countries, regions, academical and practice oriented literature showing the time lost for the reflection of academic advancements to practice, or neglecting them for some reasons in spite of the tremendously increased worldwide communication possibilities, it will be attempted to attract attention to the possible benefits of using meta-analytical approaches to the challenging complicated problems related with global warming stimulated climate changes.
