Minister of Water Resources and Irrigation, Hani Sweilam met, 14-6-2023, with Nasr El-Din Haj El-Amin, representative of the FAO in Egypt, to discuss the executive procedures for the “Enhancement of Water Productivity in Agriculture” project.
The project is being implemented by the Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation and the FAO funded by the Japanese government. During the meeting, the advisory work accompanying the project was reviewed through the joint study between the National Water Research Center and the Japanese Tottori University to develop the best methods to deal with the challenge of fragmentation of agricultural ownership in Egypt. The meeting emphasised the importance of expanding the formation of water user associations on the developed courses to participate in planning and design and implementation in preparation for them to receive, manage, operate and maintain those waters and the modern irrigation network later, and contribute to dealing with the challenge of fragmentation of agricultural ownership. Sweilam stated that the ministry is making outstanding efforts to improve the water management process, maximise the yield from the water unit and increase crop productivity in light of the important interdependence between water and food, explaining that the expansion projects in modern irrigation systems achieve this goal through rationalizing the use of water and increasing crop productivity, which is reflected in the increase financial return for farmers. |
