| Overview : The project seeks to strengthen agricultural water management practices at both local and national levels in response to climate change-induced water scarcity. The project is supporting the design and delivery of concrete water adaptation measures for local vulnerable communities in three typical agro-ecological regions in Turkmenistan. These regions are: Desert irrigated agriculture (cotton, wheat production) in Sakar Chaga region; Desert pasture livestock (sheep, camel farming) in Karakum region; Mountain rain fed agriculture (fruit, vegetables) in Nohur region. An initial scoping phase has identified a package of farm-level adaptation measures to be implemented. These measures are designed improve resilience against potential reduction in water availability. Some of these measures require supply of construction materials and equipment for 3 hectare drip irrigation system installation. Detailed technical specification and other technical documentation is attached to the RFQ-TKM-015-2015. All interested bidders are kindly invited to participate in tender process and submit offers on or before close of business (18:00) on the extended deadline of September 16, 2015 and via: e-mail, facsimile, in a sealed envelope marked; RFQ-TKM-015-2015; to the following address: United Nations Development Programme, Turkmenistan, Ashgabat, UN Building 40, 1995 (Galkynysh) street.
