3. Integrated Solutions:
Solutions that bring together or
incorporate parts into a whole

4. The Focus
This solution is farmer-focused approach
Most farms in the Mediterranean are family
owned and operated
National Governments relies on benefiting
from agriculture but don’t emphasize its
support and development

5. Animal/Poultry
Plants/Vegetation
Underdeveloped Farms

6. Poor/Underdeveloped Farms
• Poor Water Supply
• Poor Irrigation System/Technology
• Expensive Energy Supply
• Expensive Fertilizers
• Expensive Animal Feed/ Agr. Supplies
• Poor Funding
• Poor Extension/Knowledge/Knowhow Services
• Poor on-farm Waste Management

7. Integration Elements
Solid and Liquid Waste Digestion -- Biogas production
Fertilizers Production
Better Drip Irrigation – Save water/Enhance Production
Plastic tunnels for vegetables production + +
House PV Cells – Green Electric Energy + Hot Water
Rain Water Harvesting – More Fresh Water
Knowledge and Tools Transfer – Better/Higher Products/Profit

8. Applied
Research
Centers

9. integrated solutions provide
greater productivity and profitability
on the one hand and
environmental as well as social compatibility
On the other hand

10. Enhance Farm/Farmer Productivity and
Reduce Cost
Empower farmers economically
Reduce Poverty, Hunger, and inequality

11. Having more fresh water/Better Irrigation Systems/
and Green Energy Supply
Farms Adapt to Climate Disruptions
And
Reduce Water Scarcity

12. Good Governance of Available
Resources
Improve Resource and
Environmental Sustainability

13. Monitoring and Improving the Solution
Introducing Knew
Technologies/Promoting Private sector
Involvement
Develop and Introduce New Knowledge
Tools, and Understanding to farming
and farmers

14. The Solution: 3 S’s
Small and affordable,
Simple in implementation,
and Sustainable

15. Thank You for
Your Attention
