Impact of Nile levels decline on irrigation pump stations in Delta region; technical and economical

This paper divided into two items; the first is to assess the technical state of pump stations on the two branches of the Nile Delta for irrigation by solar energy to compensate the shortage of Nile water especially in such intensively cultivated region such as Delta. The second is studying the econ...
