Climate changes have harmful effects on agricultural crops in terms of quantity and quality of the crop. This is due to increasing temperatures and poor quality of the land, which requires changing the farming pattern and using improved seeds that can withstand temperatures. The project to enhance climate resilience is considered a support for small farmers and empowering them on the technical and economic level, as the project raises the awareness of local agricultural communities about the harms climate changes have on agricultural soil and crop efficiency and the extent of its danger to food security. The project also helps to spread knowledge to farmers about Modern agricultural methods and the importance of preparing the land for agriculture well, starting with leveling the land and using organic fertilizers instead of chemical ones, using improved seeds and seeds capable of withstanding high temperatures and increasing soil salinity, and using modern irrigation methods to save water instead of flood irrigation. The project also supports the idea of unifying agricultural holdings to reduce the farmer’s losses, in addition to an economic component that works to finance bird-breeding projects for women, such as fattening Muller ducks, selling them, and paying the value of the project.
