Education and Information Program to Improve Irrigation Water Use Efficiency (EIP)
Location:
Middle East & North Africa
EIP (also known as KAFA'A) is engaged in a range of communications, technical and educational activities to improve water use efficiency in Jordan's agricultural sector. The project helps farmers adopt new agricultural practices and communities implement irrigation management. It also aims to establish a sustainable producer-level extension service and to develop an information campaign for decision makers and the public on positive change in agriculture and water use. EIP will assess the on-farm water management and crop production capability of farms in the Jordan Valley and Amman-Zarqa Basin. Short-term consultants from the United States will also visit Jordan to evaluate current irrigation practices, cropping patterns and production and the need for agricultural marketing.
