Jordanian Poultry Sector Supports Local Production
The article discusses the importance of the agricultural sector and Jordanian produce, especially the tomato crop, which is one of the most prominent vegetable exports annually, with production ranging between 400,000 and 500,000 tons. Jordan ranks tenth worldwide in this sector, with a value of $136 billion within the food commodities classification. The report also highlights that the poultry sector serves as the backbone of local animal production, valued at approximately $264 billion, making Jordan the sixth-largest globally in this field. Data indicates that Jordan achieves high self-sufficiency rates in products such as olive oil, eggs, and dairy, while continuing to rely on imports for essential products like wheat, rice, and corn. The national food security strategy aims to expand production and improve efficiency, including the establishment of logistics complexes and the development of sustainable agriculture, to strengthen Jordan’s position as a regional hub for food security and reduce the import bill.
