Arid and semi-arid zones comprise approximately 40 persent of the world land surface. Plant productivity in these zones is limited by water. There is no doubt that the major challenge for agriculture in the near future is to supply enough food for a growing world. The papers in this issue originate from presentations at the symposium and provides a snapshot of thinking of the ways in which environmentally sustainable and profitable farming systems may be developed in order to improve the productivity and sustainability in mediterranean climatic regions
