about how FAO irrigation
activities have rehabilitated more than 400
000 hectar of agriculture lands in Afghanistan.
With the Emergency Irrigation Rehabilitation
Project (EIRP) farmers and their families
will benefit from improved, reliable and equitably
distributed irrigation water which will lead
to increased agricultural productivity, better
income, improved food security and reduce the
vulnerability of farmers to droughts. This will
assist in reducing poverty in rural areas, accelerating
the transition of the existing agricultural
system and laying the foundation for a dynamic
rural economy. |
