AL-Mustaqbal University Actively Contributes to Sustainable Development through Innovative Projects in Organic and Specialized Medical Agriculture

Organic Farming and Sustainable Development: AL-Mustaqbal University aims to balance crop production and environmental preservation by establishing advanced organic farms. These farms provide an educational environment where students can apply the latest agricultural techniques that rely on sustainable environmental methods and renewable resources such as solar energy and recycled water. The university also strives to reduce dependence on chemicals, helping to maintain ecological balance and the quality of food crops. Through this initiative, the university encourages students to adopt environmentally friendly farming practices, raising environmental awareness and preparing them to be leaders in this field in the future.

Medical Agriculture and Its Role in Scientific Research: The initiatives of AL-Mustaqbal University are not limited to organic farming but extend to medical agriculture as well, with the university establishing a specialized medical farm. This farm is affiliated with the Faculty of Pharmacy and the Faculty of Agricultural Technologies, especially the Department of Medical Plant Techniques and Natural Products, which focuses on studying plants with therapeutic properties. In this farm, the extraction of natural compounds from plants and their application in the pharmaceutical and natural cosmetic industries are studied.

The goal of this initiative is to enhance scientific research in the fields of pharmacy and natural therapy, as well as to provide a practical educational environment for college students to recognize the important role of medicinal plants in developing innovative drugs and treatments. This farm is an essential component in training students on modern techniques in this specialized field.

Success in Cultivating Agaricus Mushroom: In an innovative step, the university successfully cultivated Agaricus mushrooms within its organic farms. This mushroom is known for its numerous health benefits due to its content of carbohydrates, proteins, fibers, vitamins, and minerals such as Vitamins D and C, zinc, and calcium, making it a valuable dietary addition that supports general health and enhances immunity. This achievement marks a significant milestone in the university's commitment to providing high-quality food products and offers students the opportunity to learn advanced agricultural techniques specific to this type of mushroom.

Contribution to the Green Economy and Innovation: Through these initiatives, AL-Mustaqbal University emphasizes its commitment to the concept of a green economy by contributing to environmental protection and promoting sustainable production.
