Lebanese Forces Warns Against Early Pine Nut Harvesting

The Ministry of Agriculture confirmed that harvesting pine cones before they are fully ripe damages the quality of the yield, reduces the amount of pine nut content, and negatively affects the product's price. It also harms the reputation of Lebanese pine nuts in both local and international markets. The Ministry recommended refraining from harvesting before October in low-altitude areas and November in higher regions, while also emphasizing the importance of verifying ripeness in the field and adhering to technical timelines to ensure product quality and sector sustainability. Additionally, it warned against early harvesting practices aimed at preserving the quality and reputation of pine nuts.
