New Agreements With The Industrial Sector To Produce Organic Products For The Agricultural Sector

City of Scientific Research and Technological Applications signed two agreements with Khaled Mesbah Company for the Manufacture of Chemical Products. The first product is the manufacturing and marketing of an organic biological product to treat the problems of calcareous soil (Calci-organo solution), and the second product is the manufacturing and marketing of Green-Compost organic fertilizer (100% natural plant source) to support sustainable agriculture and organic agriculture in Egypt. This came in line with the principle of cooperation between scientific research and the industrial sector in accordance with the National Strategy for Science, Technology, and Innovation 2030, on Tuesday, October 17, 2023, at the headquarters of the city, in the presence of Professor Dr. Mona Mahmoud Abdel Latif, Director of the city, Professor Dr. Mohamed Rashad Abdel Fattah, Deputy Director of the city for Scientific and Research Affairs, Professor Dr. Amr Salah Morsi, Executive Director of the Technology Transfer and Marketing Office at the city, Associate Professor Dr. Younes Mohamed Rashad, Department of Plant Protection and Diagnosis, Arid Lands Cultivation Research Institute, Dr. Mohamed Hafez Abdel Fattah, Researcher at Arid Lands Cultivation Research Institute, and Mr. Khaled Mohamed Mesbah, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Khaled Mesbah Company for the Manufacture of Chemical Products, and the accompanying delegation, and a non-disclosure agreement was also signed between the city and Khaled Mesbah Company for the Manufacture of Chemical Products. Professor Dr. Mona Mahmoud Abdel Latif stressed the importance of organic fertilization to increase the productivity of agricultural lands and reduce environmental pollution resulting from the overuse of chemical fertilizers. Sustainable agriculture helps to reduce the degradation of agricultural land and protect the environment by using many useful means, and contributes to the preservation of agricultural land and its resources for the longest possible period of time. Among the problems of calcareous soil are a hard surface layer, water scarcity, the need to choose the suitable crops, the problem of nutrient imbalance, and non-permeable subsurface layers. Therefore, the city seeks to address chronic social problems and work to find appropriate solutions through innovative prototypes. These products will be produced through cooperation with industry and will bear the logos of both parties. ** Dr. Younes Mohamed Rashad, a member of the research team, pointed out that the product (Calci-organo solution) is an organic biological product to treat the problems of calcareous soil and improve its properties to increase soil fertility and the quality of agriculture there. The research team for the product conducted extensive applied studies on this product, which proved amazing results in solving the problem of agriculture in calcareous soil. Calci-organo solution dissolves calcium carbonate in calcareous soil and increases its fertility from the nitrogen and organic content, as well as improves its physical properties and permeability. This product is characterized by being environmentally friendly and supports organic agriculture and sustainable agriculture. The research team included Dr. Younes Mohamed Rashad, Dr. Mohamed Hafez Abdel Fattah, and Professor Dr. Mohamed Rashad Abdel Fattah. **On the other hand, Dr. Mohamed Hafez Abdel Fattah, a member of the research team, stated that the Green-Compost product is made from environmentally friendly organic waste. It is produced using precise scientific methods and international specifications that reduce the consumption of chemical fertilizers and increase agricultural sustainability. The research team, consisting of Professor Dr. Mohamed Rashad Abdel Fattah and Dr. Mohamed Hafez Abdel Fattah, conducted applied studies on the product, which proved that it contains a high percentage of organic matter that increases the soil’s water retention, improves the texture and structure of the soil, increases the fertility of the soil through soil additions, in addition to containing a large number of beneficial microbes that reduce the acidity of the soil and increase the availability of micronutrients that enhance plant growth and increase their productivity. This product is a supporter of sustainable agriculture as it is safe, inexpensive, effective, and environmentally friendly. It supports increasing the soil content of organic matter and nutrients in the years following its use. It also preserves its biodiversity, which helps in the reclamation of land and the increase in the agricultural area in Egypt. It is worth noting that Khaled Mesbah Company for the Manufacture of Chemical Products is headquartered in New Borg El Arab and is one of the distinguished industrial entities with its industrial expertise, capabilities, and capital and institutional components that enable it to provide and manufacture many industrial products on the local and export markets.
