Promoting Solar-Powered Irrigation for Sustainable Agriculture in Sudan |UNDP, KOICA

The Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOICA) will contribute US$6.4 million while UNDP will contribute US$0.6 million to finance the project over the period  2019 - 2023. The project endeavours to directly benefit 450 small and medium landholding farmers in all of the six localities of River Nile State in northern Sudan, including women farmers.

The project aims to develop and accelerate the adoption of off-grid solar pumping for irrigation by providing demonstration units, technical capacity building, a quality-assurance mechanism, and a financing mechanism.
