6th International Conference on Water, Energy, Food and Agricultural Technology
Istanbul, Turkey, 24-27 November 2019
Under the slogan
Field scientific research is a basis for agricultural development and water management and limitation of desertification.
In cooperation with the French Organization for Scientific Promotion and Exchange between France and the Middle East, the Tunisian Association of Digital Geographic Information ( T.A.D.G.I) and GeoSP.
Experts and international specialists in the field of water, desertification agriculture, and Energy will take part in this symposium. The Euro Arab Union of Geometrics , Arabian Union For Surveying organize an international scientific symposium from 24 to 27 Nvember 2019 Turkey/Istanbul.
