Jordan faces 800 tons of surplus daily tomatoes
Jordan is experiencing a surplus of tomatoes amounting to 800 tons daily, despite the local market only needing between 450 and 500 tons. This highlights the necessity to develop the industrial sector and improve agricultural planning. Officials confirmed that relying on ad hoc solutions is ineffective and called for the establishment of an integrated system that links production with markets and export opportunities, along with promoting contract farming. They also emphasized the importance of signing pre-season contracts and achieving a value-added rate exceeding 35% for products, with a reliance on imported materials when necessary to enhance food security sustainably.
