Description
Gezira is a historical region located in central Sudan, situated between the Blue Nile and White Nile rivers. It is known for its agricultural significance and is considered the breadbasket of Sudan due to its extensive irrigation schemes that support the cultivation of various crops, including sorghum, wheat, and cotton.
The region is characterized by its fertile land, which has contributed to the development of the Gezira Scheme, one of the world's largest irrigation projects. This initiative was established in the early 20th century and has played a crucial role in boosting the country's economy through increased agricultural production and exports.
Gezira also has a rich cultural heritage, with several ethnic groups and traditions that reflect the diversity of Sudan. The region is home to numerous historical sites and offers insights into the country's history, making it a significant area for both agricultural and cultural exploration.
