Khartoum: The Governor Gezira Scheme Ibrahim Mustafa said the scheme is a cornerstone of Sudan's economy and food security, affirming it is sufficient to meet national needs.
According to Sudan News Agency, he noted that the scheme has restored production across larger areas than before the war, despite extensive destruction of irrigation systems and farmland caused by the rebel Rapid Support Forces (RSF) militia.
He highlighted restoration efforts supported by the Sovereignty Council, improved seed supply and machinery, and increased farmer commitment to production, stressing that the scheme has proven Sudan will not face hunger.
