 =====Methods=====
+The research method involved analyzing data from FAO's World Agriculture: towards 2030/2050 program and the AQUASTAT database. It included updating agricultural trends, clustering country data for consistency, and projecting future irrigated areas and costs. The analysis was policy-neutral, assuming current growth trends continue and physical limits of land and water are respected.\\

 =====Key Insights=====
+The report examines the projected state of irrigated agriculture in Africa between 2030 and 2050, considering the impact of climate change and based on FAO's World Agriculture: towards 2030/2050 program. It assesses the potential for expanding irrigated areas, the associated costs, and the implications of climate change on water availability. The analysis suggests that while there is room for growth within the available land and water limits, careful planning is necessary to avoid over-exploitation, especially in regions already facing scarcity. The report also emphasizes the importance of improving productivity on existing irrigated lands and exploring regional trade to enhance food security and economic growth. It concludes with recommendations for capacity building, adaptive water management practices, and increased private sector involvement in irrigation.\\
