Prof. Sherif Mohamed Sabry El-Attar, Acting President of Fayoum University and Vice President for Education and Student Affairs, accompanied by Prof. Assem Fouad El-Essawy, Vice President for Community Service and Environmental Development, conducted an inspection visit to the crop, livestock, and poultry production farms in Demo—facilities affiliated with the Agricultural Research and Experimentation Center at the Faculty of Agriculture.

The visit took place on Sunday, October 25, 2026, and was attended by Prof. Bouthaina Youssef Zidan, Dean of the Faculty of Agriculture; Mr. Ahmed Rashad, Secretary-General of the University; Prof. Shaaban Saad El-Nasr, Vice Dean for Community Service and Environmental Development; and Prof. Ahmed Imam, Director of the Agricultural Research and Experimentation Center.

This visit aligns with the university’s commitment to advancing its educational, research, and production processes, while strengthening their role in supporting the academic and scientific research ecosystem and serving the community. It also reflects a focus on monitoring operations across various production sectors, assessing existing capabilities and ongoing activities, and identifying opportunities for development and production expansion—all aimed at enhancing operational efficiency and maximizing the utilization of the center’s agricultural and production resources.

The inspection tour included a visit to the crop production farms to review agricultural activities and the various crops under cultivation, as well as the livestock and poultry production units, where the delegation examined the systems in place for animal husbandry, care, and production—highlighting the diverse range of productive activities carried out at the Agricultural Research and Experimentation Center. This tour holds particular significance given the role played by the Agricultural Research and Experimentation Center—a scientific, applied, and productive hub within the university. It serves as an integrated environment that bridges academic studies with practical application, supports field training for students, and leverages scientific research findings to advance agricultural production methods.

The tour also reflects the commitment of Fayoum University’s administration to maximizing the economic and scientific value of agricultural projects, developing the university’s own resources, and promoting the optimal use of available human and technical potential—all in support of the university’s drive toward sustainable development.
