Our Center is a research and training institution that aims to increase productivity and quality in agricultural production, protect and sustainably use natural and genetic resources, and conduct national and international education and research. Our center conducts research on a wide range of topics related to agriculture, including soil and water resources, plant nutrition, and climate change. Our center employs a team of experts who use many research methods and technologies to study these topics, and then shares their findings with the public, private sector, professional organizations, and non-governmental organizations through organized training programs, courses, seminars, and conferences. Our center focuses on developing efficient water use in agriculture, improving soil productivity, conserving water and soil moisture, studying plant nutrition and soil conditions, reclamation methods, addressing the impacts of climate change, using remote sensing systems and UAVs for real-time data collection, using wastewater in agriculture for cost savings, soil improvement and environmental protection, conducting social and economic analyses for the development of soil and water resources and socio-economic research on issues.,

Our Center is seeking collaboration with research institutions, universities, and organizations to further our mission of increasing productivity and quality in agricultural production, protecting and sustainably using natural and genetic resources, and conducting national and international education and research. Our areas of expertise include water harvesting, crop-growth modeling, hydrological modeling, climate change, wastewater treatment, land reclamation, drainage, greenhouse gas emissions, plant nutrition, and sustainable agricultural systems. We are particularly interested in collaborating on projects related topics to water harvesting, the efficient use of water in agriculture, sustainable land use, irrigation, and climate change. We believe that through collaboration, we can achieve greater progress in advancing agricultural development and make a positive impact on the lives of farmers and rural communities.
