\u00a0 On Thursday , 5 November 2026, the Genetic Resources Department at AFCAR Center launched a specialized campaign to treat the seeds of several wheat genotypes.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0 The campaign was directly supervised by Dr. Islam Abdul-Sattar Asmair, with the participation of a select group of agricultural engineers and researchers from the Center. This activity was conducted as part of the Center\u2019s research and extension plans aimed at strengthening food security and supporting the agricultural sector by developing high-yielding crop varieties capable of adapting to environmental and climatic challenges.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0 These activities reflect the scientific approach adopted by the Center for Dryland Agriculture and Conservation in promoting advanced agricultural technologies that meet the requirements of sustainable agriculture. Through these ongoing experiments, researchers seek to develop scientific and practical solutions for farmers that help improve the efficiency of agricultural land use and achieve the highest possible economic returns from wheat production, given its fundamental importance as a staple food crop.<\/h3>\n

\u00a0 This activity is aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), particularly:<\/h3>\n
