Investigation of Natural Resources of Central Asia and Reconstruction of Agriculture in Afghanistan

该项目包括两个主要主题；1. 中亚沙漠资源的开发与保护2. 阿富汗北部农业的再生。前一项研究调查了Kyzylkum沙漠和Zerafshan盆地的水、土壤和植物。样品采用ICP-MS和原子吸收法进行分析。提出了防治重金属污染荒漠化和沙漠地区水资源保护的国际政策。阿富汗北部是帕米尔冰川的下游，没有平日河的天然禀赋。这一事实导致阿富汗成为国内冲突和毒品生产国。我们在Pyandzh的左岸和右岸都提出了农业再生项目，在那里，水质数据、地下滴灌和卫星数据被管理，以修正耗散用水。这些项目都是视频数字化的。在阿富汗打击麻醉品生产和贩运的解决办法需要包括许多战略。为当地农民提供罂粟的适当经济替代品就是其中一项战略。其他战略包括援助农业需要，如灌溉系统和种子，向农民提供培训，恢复包括灌溉系统在内的农业基础设施。这些战略需要阿富汗政府和国际支持组织的长期承诺。

This project is comprised of two main topics ; 1. Development and Preservation of Central Asian Desert Resources ; 2. Regeneration of Agriculture of Northern Afghanistan. The former research surveyed water, soil and plants in Kyzylkum Desert and Zerafshan Basin. The samples were analyzed by ICP-MS and Atomic Absorption method in Samarkand Geology Company. We proposed an international policy for the prevention of desertification with heavy metal pollution, and for the preservation of water resources in desert area.Northern Afghanistan that is the lower part of Pamir Glacier has no natural endowment of Pyandzh River. This fact leads Afghanistan to internal conflicts and drug producer. We proposed the agricultural regeneration projects both on the right and the left banks of Pyandzh, where water quality data, subsurface drip irrigation and satellites data are managed to amend the dissipative water usage. These projects are video digitized.A solution to combat narcotics production and trafficking in Afghanistan requires the inclusion of many strategies. Providing the local farmers with appropriate economic substitutes for poppy is one of such strategies. Other strategies include assistance with agricultural needs such as irrigation systems and seeds, provision of training to farmers, revival of the agricultural infrastructure including irrigation systems. These strategies require a long-term commitment of both the Afghan government and international support organizations.
