Welcome Suhaim! I applaud your willingness to pursue this project. With an annual rainfall of approx 3 inches/75 mm, I see your focus will be on capturing and holding as much of that water as possible. This will include such strategies as providing shade, protecting the soil from evaporation with mulches, and improving the soil's moisture holding capacity with composting. I'm sure you've seen Geoff Lawton's work in Jordan's Dead Sea area, so we know it can be done. Looking forward to hearing of your progress and providing any assistance/information we can.
Hi Suhaim, I am looking forward to hearing how you get on with this. It sounds like a challenging but very worthwhile project!
