Parliament Discusses Poultry and Olive Crisis
The article focused on discussing the crisis in the poultry and table olive sectors in Jordan. The Parliamentary Agriculture and Water Committee called for an immediate halt to poultry imports and the cancellation of previous licenses, while opening the door for organized export to dispose of surplus and support local producers. Officials explained that the abundance of local production has made the influx of imported poultry harmful to farmers and increased their burdens, especially with falling prices. Production data indicated approximately 14,012 tons in October 2026 compared to 30,000 tons in the same month of 2025, although these figures require verification. Farmers also urged the termination of the export ban on table olives, which has lasted more than three years, citing declining prices and significant losses, and demanded urgent marketing efforts abroad.
