dc.description.abstractThe video showcasing the first IDFS demo site established in Al Dhaid Agricultural Research Station (ARS), UAE, presents the Integrated Desert Farming System (IDFS) as a comprehensive approach designed to enable sustainable agriculture in arid and semi-arid regions. It combines advanced water management techniques, such as drip irrigation and water recycling, with soil enhancement practices and the cultivation of drought-tolerant crops. IDFS also incorporates renewable energy sources to power operations and utilizes controlled environment agriculture to ensure year-round crop production. Additionally, integrating livestock helps optimize resource use, making desert farming viable and environmentally sustainable. This holistic system addresses the unique challenges of desert agriculture while promoting ecological balance and food security.en_US
