Methods for Irrigation and Agriculture - MIRRA

The updated sectoral plans for the Economic Modernisation Vision - رؤية التحديث الاقتصادي have been finalized and posted on the EMV website. The #Green_growth sectoral plan reaffirms the EMV’s commitments towards a #green and #just_transition in the Jordanian economy and development sectors. From its outset, the EMV had a clear green identity and now it is becoming deeper with the updated strategic objectives, KPIs and initiative that reflect proven opportunities in #green_economy and addresses Jordan’s emerging and chronic #environmental challenges. The GIZ Jordan implemented project Green Action in Enterprises (GAIN) has closely aligned with the EMV in its first implementation cycle (2022-2025) and will be even more closely aligned in the upcoming one (2026-2029). GAIN is directly aligned with four priority initiatives under the green growth driver of EMV: ·      Increasing the efficiency of #governance frameworks for green growth ·      Strengthening #circular_economy measures ·      Aligning improved skills with #green_jobs opportunities in all sectors ·      Enhancing integrated #waste_management   GAIN is also highly aligned with more relevant initiatives:   ·      Aligning #green_investment opportunities with national investment priorities ·      Establishing an enabling environment for #green_innovation and #entrepreneurship to make Jordan a regional leader in green growth ·      Enhancing the readiness of industries for #low_carbon export   In the process of developing the EMV’s updated executive programme 2026-2029 the alignment of specific GAIN activities with EMV will become more clear and the project will continue to proudly contribute to the progress of the EMV and Jordan’s sustainable development pathway.

The Energy-Water-Food Nexus refers to the interdependence and interconnectedness of energy, water, and food systems. - Energy production requires water, and water infrastructure requires energy, creating a mutual dependence. - Agriculture requires water and energy for irrigation, fertilizers, and transportation, making food production reliant on both resources. - Water is needed for energy generation, including cooling power plants and hydropower production. Climate change impacts the availability and quality of water resources, affecting energy and food production. Increasing population and changing consumption patterns put additional stress on these interconnected systems. #sustainability #energy #foods #water #climatechange #impact #future #agriculture #cleanenergy #environment #economy

Water towers are limited natural resources and over exploitation will not only harm the current generation but future generations as well, These catchments are considered vital national assets because of their contribution to community livelihoods and the support they give to key sectors of the national economy including agriculture, energy, tourism, and industry, Water towers collect rainwater, regulate river flows and prevent runoff, recharge ground-water aquifers, improve soil fertility, reduce soil erosion and sediment loads in river water, regulate local climatic conditions for commercial agriculture, and act as carbon reservoirs and sinks, In addition, these catchment areas are instrumental in climate regulation, mitigating floods, conservation of biological diversity, nutrients cycling and soil formation.
