Descripción

This report presents a thorough evaluation of two key initiatives, OSRO/LIB/100/AFB and OSRO/LIB/002/ITA, which utilize advanced remote sensing technologies alongside field data collection to enhance water management systems. The primary aim is to assess the infrastructure related to water management, focusing specifically on irrigation systems, crop production, and water productivity across Libya, with particular attention to the regions of Fezzan (Southern), Western, and Eastern Libya. The overarching goal of these projects is to improve sustainable water resource management practices. By leveraging the insights gained from these initiatives, there is potential to apply the knowledge and techniques developed here on a national scale. The expected outcomes include the identification of areas requiring rehabilitation and development, as well as the creation of deep insights into innovative practices and cutting-edge technologies that can significantly enhance water productivity at the micro-farm level.
