\u00a0 The Center for Arid Farming and Conservation Agriculture Research (C.AFCAR) delivered a scientific workshop at the Ninawa Agriculture Directorate on 4 November 2026, in cooperation with the Directorate\u2019s Development and Studies Division and Research and Development Unit. The workshop addressed the research study entitled \u201cWheel sinkage of center pivot sprinkler into soil during irrigation and rutting formation in the field obstructing agricultural operations.\u201d The workshop was delivered by an academic delegation from C.AFCAR comprising Assistant Professor Dr. Adnan Abed Ahmed, Lecturer Dr. Nawaf Jassim Mohammed, and Assistant Lecturer Ahmed Ibrahim Abed, and was attended by representatives of the Ninawa Agriculture Directorate and the Ninawa Governorate Office.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0 The workshop highlighted practical approaches to reducing wheel sinkage and preventing the formation of field ruts during centre pivot irrigation operations.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0 These approaches included mechanical solutions, such as using wide or radial tyres, auxiliary wheels, and rubber track systems; hydrological solutions, including half-circle sprinkler nozzles and rear-mounted spray booms; and field-management measures, such as filling wheel tracks with gravel, soil, or straw and using polyacrylamide soil conditioners.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0\u00a0The discussions also addressed the potential of low-pressure centre pivot systems and drip irrigation technologies to improve water-use efficiency and reduce adverse field conditions.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0 This activity contributes to the achievement of SDG 2: Zero Hunger; SDG 6: Clean Water and Sanitation; SDG 9: Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure; SDG 12: Responsible Consumption and Production; and SDG 13: Climate Action.<\/h3>\n
