El Gezira and El Managil Agricultural Scheme (Social media)
El Gezira and El Managil Agricultural Scheme farmers have warned that a lack of irrigation will lead to damages to the winter crops in several sections of the project. Farmers in Tokar in eastern Sudan call for support from the Red Sea government.
Farmer and member of the Emergency Committee of El Gezira and El Managil Agricultural Scheme Faroug El Badawi told Radio Dabanga that the crops will need irrigation for another six weeks. He said that stopping irrigation in mid-March would destroy large quantities of the wheat crop.
