Farming along White and Blue Nile Rivers, near Khartoum, w:en:Sudan

In the Sahara Desert, along the White and Blue Nile rivers lies a thriving agricultural area. As seen in this Landsat 7 image, the farming patterns resemble French long farms, whose long, rectangular shapes allow each individual plot access to water from irrigation canals along the narrow side. The White Nile (left side of image) joins with the narrower Blue Nile (right side of image) a few miles further north at the city of Khartoum, Sudan, home to approximately 1 million of Sudan’s 33 million people. Sudan’s main crop is cotton, a very water-intensive crop for such an arid land. Surrounding Khartoum is the eastern Saharan Desert, noticeable as the reddish area in the upper left portion of the image.
