To capture climatic variability, the analysis was conducted during two contrasting years (dry and wet).
The new lands are represented by the El- Bustan area. The soils of the site are mostly sandy with low fertility and relatively low water holding capacity and crops are grown exclusively under irrigation using modern irrigation systems.
This study aimed at conducting the followings activities:
• To survey and identify the flora at the Mharib watershed (the intervention area of the Badia Benchmark Project),
• to study the effect of microcatchment WH techniques on the soil seed bank compared with the current situation,
The study was conducted in El-Serw (New Alexandria) located about 32 km south of Damietta, Damietta Governorate, El-Manzala Lake is to the east, Dakahlia Governorate lies to the south, and to the west are El-Sharqawia canal and the Nile River.

The Badia constitutes about 90% of the total land area of Jordan, which is 89 342 km2. Its average annual rainfall is 200 mm. The area with annual rainfall of 100–200 mm is considered the promising rangeland for rehabilitation.
Since ICARDA’s inception in 1977, the United States has been the single biggest donor to the center’s research and capacity development programs.
How suitable an area is for WH depends on local society, farming practices, and whether the area meets the basic technical requirements of the WH system in question.
