ICARDA's innovative ‘Innovative Small-holder Agriculture Resilience’ (iNASHR) project, funded by GIZ and developed alongside Egypt's ARC and Ministry of Agriculture, is helping to address Egypt’s water scarcity and soil quality simultaneously, and through a systemic approach, to improve food security for smallholder family farmers.
iNASHR aims to promote sustainable intensification of wheat-based systems across six Egyptian Governorates by facilitating adoption and multiplication of ICARDA-improved seed varieties, modernizing traditional raised-bed farming methods, and reintroducing a cereal/legume crop rotation on-field, through mechanization.
