The Eastern Province is distinguished by the rice harvest season, which covers about 100,000 feddans out of a total of over 290,000 feddans cultivated this year. The harvest focuses on various types, including broad-grain varieties such as Super 300 and 108, as well as slender-grain types like 177 and 178. Harvesting is done manually to maintain the quality of the crop, accompanied by intensive efforts to prevent the burning of rice straw. This includes regular monitoring by official authorities and fines ranging from 50,000 to one million Egyptian pounds for those caught burning. Additionally, 500 awareness seminars have been organized to educate farmers on environmentally and economically sustainable ways to utilize the straw. Equipment such as balers and tractors has been provided to facilitate transportation and baling, ultimately aiming to protect the environment and increase farmers’ economic returns.
