Tahbob warns of land confiscation risks

Deputy Dima Tlaib held the government responsible for expropriating 3,500 dunams of agricultural land in Ghor al-Safi and Ghor Fifa without fair compensation. These lands belong to the local residents and their loss threatens national food security. She explained that losing these agricultural lands, some of which are cultivated with tomatoes yielding an average of 4 to 6 tons per dunam, will result in an annual loss of between 14 and 21 million kilograms of produce, taking into account a 40% loss during harvest and marketing. Additionally, the livestock sector will be heavily impacted, as fodder production will decline, increasing costs and dependency on imports, thereby threatening the country's food security and food sovereignty. The government and relevant authorities will continue their efforts to find solutions that ensure fair compensation and protect agricultural lands, emphasizing the importance of agriculture as a pillar of national independence.
