Kenya’s irrigation sector stands at a pivotal moment. Climate pressures such as droughts and floods are intensifying, national development ambitions are expanding,and the demand for more reliable water access is growing across countries. To meet these challenges, the government has set out the National Irrigation Sector Investment Plan (NISIP) as its roadmap to expand irrigated land, ...
Agriculture is more than an economic sector in Ethiopia — it is the lifeline of the country. More than 15 million smallholder farmers produce close to 95% of the country’s agricultural output. Their work sustains national food security, supports rural incomes and contributes significantly to economic stability. However, these farmers work against increasingly unforgiving odds. They ...
Mukhiya Fish Farms, located in Sahidnagar Municipality in Madhesh Province, Nepal, is in many ways a historical institution. Run by husband-wife duo Kanhaiya and Manju Devi Mukhiya, the farm was established nearly 40 years ago by Boyalal Mukhiya, Kanhaiya’s late father and a pioneering fish farmer. In the early days, Kanaiya’s father practiced general fish farming. One day, the head ...
Since irrigation in Bangladesh depends heavily on imported diesel, the Government of Bangladesh has been investing in solar irrigation pumps (SIPs) to enhance energy security and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Supported by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), the International Water Management Institute’s (IWMI) Solar ...
Agriculture is quietly transforming across rural India — and women are at its heart. As men migrate in search of work due to climate stress, shrinking farm returns and industrial jobs, women are stepping in to manage farms, livestock and households. This feminization of agriculture has been unfolding for years yet remains largely invisible in policy and undercounted in data. Women now make ...
As well as owning our own assets, we provide tailored energy management schemes to manage, measure, and reduce energy consumption, they design and install the latest renewable and low carbon technologies, from heat pumps and solar PV farms, to battery storage and waste heat recovery, and their Drakelow energy from waste (EfW) plant, being delivered by VEUL on ...
The International Water Management Institute (IWMI) has launched the second phase of the Solar Energy for Agricultural Resilience (SoLAR) project. Running from July 2025 until December 2029 and supported by the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SDC), the project expands its geographical and thematic scope to deepen climate resilience and agricultural transformation of small holder ...
PG&E's project scoring framework evaluated customer and community attributes, resilience benefits, and environmental benefits along with the requested incentive amounts to determine the projects with the highest benefit-to-cost ratio.Prior to formally accepting the awards, the nine selected wave one MIP projects will perform due diligence to: review the terms of their award; reconfirm their ...
