Water is brought from a dam at Khashm el Girba and travels through a main canal which extends 26 kilometres up to the first regulator. At this point the canal is divided into three northward running branch canals. Minor channels branch off from these three canals, and finally, the water is distributed through lateral field channels. Each of them serves 18 or 36 tenancies.

The fields must be farmed according to the crop rotation and management regime determined by the New Halfa Agricultural Production Corporation (NHAPc). A three years' rotation of cotton, wheat and groundnuts is prescribed for the tenancies without any fallow-year provided for. Cotton and groundnuts are grown as summer/rainy season crops planted between June and August, while wheat is a winter/dry season crop planted in October. Recently, sorghum (dura) has been introduced in the rotation). It is also a rainy season crop, planted at the onset of the rains in June-July.
