The visit aimed to strengthen scientific and research collaboration and exchange expertise to develop modern irrigation techniques that reduce production costs and increase crop yields in Nineveh Governorate.<\/h3>\n<h3>\u00a0 The delegation was welcomed by the Center Director, Professor Dr. Mohammed Sobhi Mustafa Al-Taweel, in the presence of the Head of the Mechanized Technologies Department, Lecturer Dr. Mahmoud Awad Hussein. The visiting delegation requested a detailed explanation of the center\u2019s modified drip irrigation project, which is implemented in the fields of a farmer in the Tel Kaif area under the center\u2019s supervision. The project\u2019s importance for farmers in Nineveh was highlighted, focusing on improving water-use efficiency and enhancing agricultural production amid climate change challenges and limited water resources.<\/h3>\n<h3>\u00a0 The two parties also discussed the possibility of leveraging the center\u2019s expertise to extend this technology to farmers across the governorate as part of future agricultural development programs.<\/h3>\n<h3>\u00a0 At the conclusion of the visit, the delegation expressed appreciation for the warm reception and emphasized the importance of continued research and technical cooperation between agricultural institutions to support sustainable agricultural production and resource management.<\/h3>\n<h3>\u00a0 This visit aligns with several Sustainable Development Goals, particularly: <strong>Goal 2: Zero Hunger<\/strong> \u2014 by promoting agricultural technologies that increase productivity and support food security.<strong>Goal 6: Clean Water and Sanitation<\/strong> \u2014 through adopting guided irrigation systems that reduce waste and improve water resource management.<strong>Goal 13: Climate Action<\/strong> \u2014 by applying agricultural technologies that conserve resources and help adapt to climate change.<strong>Goal 17: Partnerships for the Goals<\/strong> \u2014 by strengthening scientific and research collaboration between academic institutions and agricultural departments.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"lazyload alignnone size-full wp-image-40697\"
