The second place award presented by Orange companies, Orascom and Juhayna to the universities participating in the League 3, with 7 participating universities. The AAST-Alexandria team presented three projects: 1. The first project: (Quinoa) an alternative to rice which has multiple benefits and advantages that are not found in rice as it has eight times the elements found in rice (magnesium - phosphorus - manganese - zinc) and also has a small amount of carbohydrates. This makes it suitable for athletes, and one of its most important features is that it saves water, as it consumes only 40% of the amount needed by rice in cultivation, which makes it save a large amount of water used in rice cultivation. The saved quantity can be used for other uses, and there are also many farmers who specialize in rice cultivation, but according to the current conditions and permission to grow rice in certain places, the farmers found the solution to grow quinoa instead of rice, and they participated in the cultivation of quinoa and the project was applied to multiple areas in Both Fayoum and Sadat City
