Main tasks of the report:
• Brief analysis of the ecological situation in Arid Lands and its dynamics according the problem of crops plantation
• Information concerning the new technologies of sustainable desert plantation which are based on Natural and Synthetic Organic Products from Russia and native land resources of Arabian countries.

Ecological situation in Arab countries
• Soil is a main capital of a country, source of life and stable prosperity of its population. People who live in areas with arid climate realize that very well because the territories suitable for farming are very small there.
• According to the estimates of independent experts and international organizations (UNESCWA, FAOSTAT, CAMRE, UNEP, and ACSAD) desertification and degradation of lands have place on the bigger parts of territories in Iraq, Jordan, Syria, the Arabian Gulf countries and other Arab states. With all this going on from 30% to 80% of irrigated lands are subjected to salinization which is the main cause of land degradation suitable for growing plants.

The new technologies of sustainable desert gardening, melioration and reclamation of arid lands:
• Desalinization and control of salt table in soils • Reduce of water supply by 50%• Increase of productivity of arid lands, soil
construction• The use of highly-effective organic fertilizers and soil
conditioners, increase of productivity of arid lands• Choice of tolerated vegetation• Ecological assessment and analysis, landscape design
and realization of complex projects• Consulting, training and professional education

Soil constructions and increase of productivity of arid landscapes :
The main idea: to create a special“working layer” by using local ground
materials and Russian organic products in order to increase water holding and nutrient capacity of the soil and destroy the capillary
effects as a main reason of salinity in the irrigated soil.
![Page 12: Smagin RusOrgTech БИОЭРАГРУПП](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081604/58778cf81a28ab0f778b486b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
salts
Wet soil increases the evaporation
Evaporation in wet soil like pump pulls the salt up to the surface
Physical mechanism of salinity increase under irrigation:
salts
Dry soil stops the evaporation and accumulates fresh water
*from the report of Professor of Moscow State University Smagina,1995
![Page 13: Smagin RusOrgTech БИОЭРАГРУПП](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081604/58778cf81a28ab0f778b486b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
The principal scheme of salinity protective and water accumulated soil construction for Gulf conditions:
Materials:
1. Local sand
2. Local lime stones
3. Russian Natural and Synthetic Organic Conditioners
Salts and ground water
Stones layer destroys the capillary and up movement of the salts
Organic matter The layer holds
the water and nutrients

Choice of vegetation:The main idea: If the soil and
irrigated water are not good – let choose tolerant crops
![Page 36: Smagin RusOrgTech БИОЭРАГРУПП](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081604/58778cf81a28ab0f778b486b/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
A set of technological methods for growing of vegetable production is aimed at minimization of unfavorable nature factors and maximum realization of own plant’s potential to achieve stable farming in arid conditions.
In this connection, the set of the methods joins multiplicity of actions regarding both plants themselves and their habitat. It is first of all – choice of vegetative crop depending on behavior, productivity and tolerance. There is no doubt that selection is carried out in accordance with the requirements of a customer.
Choosing of Vegetation & Planting
![Page 37: Smagin RusOrgTech БИОЭРАГРУПП](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081604/58778cf81a28ab0f778b486b/html5/thumbnails/37.jpg)
Theoretically, the Ideal Soil technologies make it possible to meet any demands, including the most complicated one - growing of exotic kinds of plants, unusual for that climate. But for steady farming with minimum expenditures it is better to fix upon the most viable, tolerant forms of plants with the required merit.
They are easily distinguished when analyzing the summary data displayed in the following tables, which contain information about the most widely spread in the Arabian Gulf area vegetable crops, their needs, vitality and specificity of growing.
To make it more suitable for work, the information is grouped into separate classes of vegetation: vegetables, flowers and grasses, ground covering plants, bushes, and trees.
Choosing of Vegetation & Planting
![Page 38: Smagin RusOrgTech БИОЭРАГРУПП](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081604/58778cf81a28ab0f778b486b/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
For example: if the area under the object is heavily salinized, has no natural shading, the irrigation water is of low quality, and the client has no enough money and time for fundamental land-improvement of the area, it is necessary to chose the most tolerable and undemanding crops. Among trees and palms they may be Thorn Tree (Prosopis juliflore), Tamarisk, Date Palm, Washington Palm, Australian Pine (Casuarina equisetifolia), Christ-thorn Tree, Jerusalem Thorn, Conocarpus, Eucalypt, Wild Tamarind Tree. Among bushes - Salt Bush (Atriplex sp.), Arabian Lilae, Wild Jasmine, Yellow Oleanders, Pomegranate, ground covering plants – Camel’s Foot Creeper, green lawns on the basis of salt resistant grasses (Bermuda grass, Seaisle Paspalum, Bermuda Hybrid, etc.).
Choosing of Vegetation & Planting
![Page 39: Smagin RusOrgTech БИОЭРАГРУПП](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022081604/58778cf81a28ab0f778b486b/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
Small areas may be provided with antisalt masks, and some amount of the 10-20% NOP-GR may be introduced into the soil.
In this case it becomes possible to grow drought-resistant flowers and grasses (Amaranthus, Basil, Calliopsis, Common GardenThyme, Marigolds, Painted Daisy, Petunia, Sun Plant, Zinnia etc.) and many vegetable crops (Cucumbers, Beans, Melons, Okra, Peas, Peppers, Pumpkins, Sunflowers, Tomatoes, Watermelons etc.).
Thus, even in the most unfavorable conditions it is quite possible to organize stable farming and cultivate various kinds of vegetation.

Ecological follow up of a project, monitoring.
Monitoring of technical characteristics and ecological condition of the object is provided automatically with the help of autonomous electronic micro sensors.
Besides the information about possible causes of failures in functioning of the object, monitoring makes it possible to find out how conscientiously the maintenance staff follows the technological recommendations in operating the object.
Let us give some examples. A fragment of monitoring of temperature and humidity in Sakhir area in Bahrain is represented in the pictures. There is a forest planted with the use of the Ideal Soil (Organic farming) system.

Examination of the condition of plants in the outlying zone displayed depression in growth of some plants compared to the general successful background. In particular, signs of evident shrinking of neem trees (Azadirachta indica) were registered whereas a standing near eucalyptus tree was in absolutely normal condition.
Analysis of the information registered by micro sensors «hygrochron» (USA) made it clear that the soil under the neem tree has been overheated up to extreme temperatures and in the soil practically there was no moisture available for the tree roots.

Subsequent examination of the irrigation system made it clear that the irrigating moisture has not come to the root zone of the tree because the water nozzles have been clogged. Thus, monitoring made it possible to find quickly the cause of unfavourable condition of the plant and gave recommendations how to eliminate it.

Main conclusions:
• Soil constructions based on natural and synthetic Russian materials are effective for organic farming and landscaping in arid conditions.
• Field experiments show in U.A.E, Qatar, Bahrain that modern technologies allows:
reduce the irrigation water requirement 50-60% (lawns, alfa-alfa, tomato, cucumbers)
increase the yield of plants 10-50% Increase tree and shrubs grow and planting effect 50% protect soils from salinity and degradation 100%
