Egypt spends $6 billion every year importing food while sitting on vast stretches of empty desert. Daniel Torres investigates the New Delta project, where Egypt's military is attempting to turn 2.2 million acres of sand into farmland. But why is one of the world's largest agricultural experiments shrouded in such secrecy?

🎯 What You'll Learn:

• Why Egypt's population exploded from 28 million to 104 million while farmable land stayed flat

• How the military controls this massive desert transformation (and what they're not telling us)

• The real success rate of similar projects since the 1960s: only 30% actually work long-term

• What $6 billion in annual food imports really means for a country this size

👤 Perfect for: listeners who question why governments keep massive infrastructure projects under wraps, especially when food security affects millions of people.
