About
Dr. Mehdi Ben Mimoun is a leading researcher in sustainable horticulture and fruit crop physiology, with a focus on optimizing irrigation and nutrient management for stone fruits. His work addresses critical challenges in water-scarce regions, particularly through studies on deficit irrigation strategies. In his highly cited 2016 paper, "Combined effect of restricted irrigation and potassium on yield and quality of apricot," Dr. Ben Mimoun demonstrated how regulated water stress, when paired with targeted potassium fertilization, can maintain fruit yield and enhance quality parameters such as sugar content and firmness. This research, presented at the prestigious XXIX International Horticultural Congress, provides practical solutions for growers facing limited water resources. With over 3 citations, this work has influenced both academic discussions and applied horticultural practices. Dr. Ben Mimoun’s contributions extend to understanding the physiological responses of perennial fruit crops to environmental stress, making him a key figure in advancing climate-resilient agriculture. His findings continue to guide sustainable production systems, balancing economic viability with environmental stewardship.
