Sraïri, Mohamed Taher

Dr. Sraïri is a Senior Lecturer in Animal Science at the Hassan II Agronomy and Veterinary Medicine Institute (IAV), Rabat, Morocco. He is currently the Head of the School of Agricultural Sciences at IAV. Dr.Sraïri completed his Ph.D in 2004 from the Gembloux Agro-Bio Tech University, Belgium. He has an experience of 26 years in research on topics related to crop-livestock systems in Morocco with a focus on dairy production. His research activities have allowed him to publish more than 60 peer-reviewed articles in international journals, as well as the participation in several conferences dedicated to livestock and agricultural sciences. He has also been associated to reviewing several manuscripts submitted to international scientific journals. He is mainly interested in crop-livestock integration, with an emphasis on resources use efficiency, particularly land, water, and work. As a consequence, he had achieved on-farm research in semi-arid to arid areas on water productivity in crop-livestock systems, in contexts where farms are in majority smallholder units, with a focus on the origin

of water (whether rainfall or irrigation from surface or groundwater sources). This has necessitated an accurate characterization of the resources uses (volumes of water and hours of work) and the yields and profitability they allowed by crops and livestock products. He is currently involved in a global research network dealing with work uses in farming systems andtheir consequences on the attractiveness of agriculture, particularly for young generations. He is also involved in research activities with a transdisciplinary team in the oases areas, where global changes (climate, social, etc.) are severely impacting farming systems, putting at risk their resilience, in a context of severe resource scarcity.
