Egyptian Minister of Agriculture, Alaa Farouk, discussed efforts to enhance food security in Egypt, with a focus on supporting small farmers and developing local production. He explained that the ministry is working on improving farmers' income levels, unifying agricultural holdings, and developing agricultural extension services to face climate change by expanding the use of modern technologies and providing climate-resistant seeds. He also pointed out that Egypt aims to increase self-sufficiency in wheat to 62% by 2030 and achieve 98% self-sufficiency in white meats, while working to export the surplus.
