Our Mission...
Since the late 1970s of invasion from Soviet, Afghanistan
has experienced a continuous state of war, and still today, the country is still
in a danger. Afghanistan used to have full of greenery, however, trees and farms
had been destroyed due to war. A drought dried out vegetation and caused the
country's water shortage. People are suffering from hunger, poverty, lack of
water and they are facing to the critical situation of their life.
Our future
goal is to save Afghan People and their country with their food crisist by using
our science and technology, by building up the wheat breeding system which can
be their main agricultural product.
