 To meet dietary needs while considering water constraints, the plan includes a mix of annual and perennial crops, strategically chosen for their resilience in arid conditions. The growing season is divided into four main periods: winter, spring, summer, and autumn, with crops adjusted for optimal productivity and water efficiency.
-**Winter (December – February)**: Spinach, kale, leeks, carrots, and herbs like rosemary thrive in cooler weather. Root vegetables such as beets and radishes grow well with minimal irrigation.
-**Spring (March – May)**: Lettuce, peas, onions, garlic, and strawberries provide fresh produce, while artichokes and other perennials like rhubarb begin to yield. Targeted drip irrigation helps conserve water as temperatures rise.
-**Summer (June – August)**: Drought-tolerant crops like tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and beans are ideal. Olives, figs, and pomegranates also flourish, needing limited watering. Mulching and efficient irrigation are crucial to reduce evaporation.
-**Autumn (September – November)**: Crops like pumpkins, turnips, and leafy greens are planted as temperatures cool, supported by natural rainfall. Apple, pear, and fig trees also provide valuable autumn produce.
