The Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) is a political and economic union of Arab states, namely Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the Unites Arab Emirates. The GCC was formed in 1981 to strengthen the members’ economic, social and political ties by harmonizing regulations in various fields including economy, finance, trade and customs. The region extends over a territory of 2 673 108 km2 and is home to about 50 million people. The common denominators of the GCC countries are limited natural fertile land, scarce water resources and harsh climate. Depending on the country, the agriculture sector may use as much as 75 percent of the national available water resources. This has enormous environmental costs and significantly affects the sustainability of overall development in the Arabian Peninsula.According to Al-Rashed and Sherif (2000), the lack of renewable water resources is one of the critical constraints to sustainable development in the GCC countries. Rainfall in the Arabian Peninsula is scarce and infrequent. Over-exploitation of fossil groundwater resources, mostly to meet irrigation demands and create greenery lands, has already affected the productivity of aquifers, both quantitatively and qualitatively, despite the fact that much of the freshwater demand in the GCC countries is already covered using desalinated water. Reducing water consumption and increasing water efficiency are essential to enhancing agriculture and moving towards increased self-sufficiency with the production of high-quality, safe and diversified foods in the GCC countries. Exploiting the full potential of protected agriculture should save significant amounts of water, which can be used not only for agriculture but for other needs as well.

All statistical evidence confirms that agriculture is the key sector for water management, now and in the next decades. Nevertheless, the rural water development sector fails at present to get priority, compared to other competing sectors, in international fora. Strong and new arguments are needed to bring rural water back "on line." Agriculture policies and investments will need to become more strategic. They will have to unlock the potential of agricultural water management practices to raise productivity, spread equitable access to water, and conserve the natural productivity of water resources base.

This volume presents the outcome of an Agriculture Workshop organized by the Gulf Research Centre Cambridge (GRCC) and held at Cambridge University, UK during the Gulf Research Meeting 11-14 July 2012. Co-directed by the editors, the workshop, entitled “Environmental Cost and Changing Face of Agriculture in the Gulf States” was attended by participants from Australia, Bahrain, India, Kuwait, Oman, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, UAE, UK and Morocco. These scientists, educators, researchers, policy makers and managers share their experience in agriculture in the Gulf States, with the aim of helping to improve agriculture production and thus bridge the gap between local production and the food import. The papers gathered here were presented at the workshop and have all passed through rigorous peer review by renowned scientists. The diverse papers present various aspects of agriculture production in the evolving face of climate change and dwindling water resources in the region. The book covers topics such as the prospects of agriculture in a changing climate; the potential of climate-smart agriculture; the impact of food prices, income and income distribution on food security; improved efficiency in water use; challenges in using treated wastewater in agriculture; investment in foreign agriculture and agricultural research and development. The papers span the nations of the Gulf Cooperation Council, with specific case studies set in Oman, Bahrain and Kuwait.

A diferencia de la Carta europea, centrada en el imperativo histórico de sellar la división continental, las instituciones asiáticas de cooperación e integración resaltan de manera expresa su relación con la institucionalidad multilateral en sus documentos fundadores. ¿Por qué? Sencillamente, porque al concluir la Segunda Guerra Mundial, el marco pro-visto por la institucionalidad multilateral auspició los movimientos de liberación nacional en Asia. Para los pueblos asiáticos, la estructura multilateral vino a ser, en muchos casos, propiciadora de las luchas de liberación del sometimiento colonial o neocolonial, con el fin de acceder a un puesto en el gran foro de las naciones. En correspondencia, frente a un sistema internacional abocado a la conformación de bloques geopolíticos excluyentes, el futuro de la humanidad organizada en forma incluyente y concertada tiende a depender de la defensa asiática de la ONU y la gobernanza multilateral global.

Ce rapport décrit la mission d'appui de la FAO au Maroc pour établir une politique inter-acteurs autour de la vision stratégique de développement durable à long terme des zones désertiques et oasiennes. Cette collaboration vise à intégrer les acteurs au niveau stratégique et politique pour mettre en œuvre des plans de développement territorial et définir le modèle de développement approprié pour les zones désertiques et oasiennes. L'objectif de cette mission est d'appuyer la mise en œuvre de stratégies de développement pour assurer une meilleure productivité et durabilité des secteurs de l'agriculture, de la forêt et de la pêche, et de renforcer la résilience des outils des populations locales pour faire face aux différentes menaces climatiques ainsi qu'aux crises sanitaires. La recherche de solutions à ces défis complexes et interdépendants nécessite une approche globale et innovante, fortement participative et prospective, en termes d'options de développement territorial.
