Agriculture: Tomato surplus may hit 800 tons daily
The article discusses the surplus production of tomatoes in Jordan, where a official at the Ministry of Agriculture confirmed that the surplus could reach up to 800 tons daily when tomato production hits about 1,000 tons per day. He explained that the local market needs between 450 to 500 tons daily, and that reducing quantities below 400 tons leads to higher prices, with export possible to manage the excess. He also emphasized the importance of establishing a food industry capable of absorbing the surplus and transforming it into value-added products to achieve sustainability and create job opportunities. Experts called for the development of a marketing system before the production phase and the activation of sustainable manufacturing processes, stressing that building stable production bases and signing contracts with farmers are essential to reduce marketing bottlenecks.
