WHY SUDAN:
Sudan is one of the biggest countries in Africa
and Arab countries. it covers an area of about
2.5 million square km , out of this 200 million
feddans (0.84million square km) is suitable for
agriculture and only 36 million feddans (0.15
million square km approximately) is actually
utilized, 4.4 million feddans under irrigation
and the rest under rain fed irrigation. Sudan
has about 63 % of the modern farms in
Sub-Saharan Africa. If Sudan utilizes its land
and water resources properly, it can produce
food enough to help in solving food problems in
the world.
According to the strategic National Plan for
the ten years, the area irrigation is to reach
9.0 millions feddans.
Drastic change in terms of economic & political
strategy, economic liberation, encouragement of
private sector has become the norm.
Comprehensive National Strategy included many
development & attractive investment projects.
