The article outlines a significant agricultural project in Egypt aimed at modernizing sugarcane cultivation by transitioning from traditional flooding irrigation to advanced seedling systems. With a budget of 1.2 billion pounds, the initiative seeks to enhance sugarcane yield from 30 to 50 tons per acre, potentially saving $400 million annually by reducing sugar imports. The project will initially cover 20,000 acres in Qena and Luxor, with plans to expand to 320,000 acres over 3 to 5 years. It involves the use of advanced Dutch and Brazilian technologies to improve seedling production, saving 30% of water and fertilizer per acre, and increasing factory production capacity. Overseen by the Ministry of Agriculture and the Ministry of Water Resources and Irrigation, the project aims to localize the sugarcane seedling industry, crucial for 25 other products, and facilitate agricultural mechanization.
