Water Minister reviews irrigation tech project
The irrigation technology modernization project in Upper Egypt, implemented by the Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation in cooperation with FAO and supported by the Dutch government, aims to improve water use efficiency and increase agricultural productivity in the governorates of Assiut, Sohag, and Qena. The project focuses on upgrading irrigation systems and training farmers in collective irrigation practices, with the development of 821 acres using modern irrigation systems and involving approximately 2,676 farmers organized into 208 agricultural groups. Additionally, the project includes conducting agricultural research and experiments, raising farmer awareness through field schools, with the goal of enhancing water management and promoting sustainability. It also supports value chains and the development of small projects to improve the livelihoods of smallholder farmers.
