埃及排水的故事是关于提高生产力和确保灌溉农业的可持续性。如果没有有效的排水来控制内涝和盐碱化，就不可能实现高度集约化和多样化的灌溉农业。埃及花了一个世纪的时间才达到现在的排水水平。它是政治承诺、体制发展、技术改进和管理能力综合作用的结果。这种努力持续了几十年，不仅是为了建造新的项目，而且还通过研究、定期维护和必要时的更换和现代化来保持已安装的系统的良好运行。
The story of drainage in Egypt is about enhancing productivity and ensuring sustainability of the irrigated agriculture. It was not possible for the country to turn into highly intensive and diversified irrigated agriculture, without effective drainage to control waterlogging and salinity. It took Egypt a century to reach this level of drainage development. It is the outcome of a combination of political commitment, institutional development, technological improvement, and management capacity. The effort was sustained over many decades not only to construct new projects but to keep the installed system well performing through research, regular maintenance, and when necessary replacement and modernization.
