As part of the ongoing activities of the Center for Arid Farming and Conservation Agriculture Research in adopting the concept of biochar, the center continues to conduct scientific and field experiments on strategic crops, thereby strengthening its research role in developing innovative solutions to environmental challenges and achieving food security.

  On Sunday, April 12, 2026, Assistant Lecturer Zakir Jassim Mohammed carried out periodic measurements for field experiments in which biochar fertilizer was applied.

  These measurements aim to evaluate the effect of biochar on soil and plants, particularly its role in improving soil fertility and increasing its water-holding capacity, and how this is reflected in crop growth and productivity.

   Through these activities, the center reaffirms its commitment to developing sustainable agriculture and enhancing the efficiency of natural resource use.

This activity is aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals, especially:

• Goal 2 (Zero Hunger).

• Goal 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production).

• Goal 13 (Climate Action).

• Goal 15 (Life on Land).
