World Bank Aids 111,000 Jordanian Farmers
The report focused on the results of the "Ardi" program to strengthen the resilience of the agricultural sector in Jordan. It contributed to the capacity of more than 111,500 farmers to face climate risks through June 2026, against a final target of 309,550 individuals by 2030. Additionally, over 63,800 farmers benefited from agricultural services and assets, and the program developed the capacity to harvest and store rainwater amounting to more than 2.2 million cubic meters. Despite progress in distributing support and training, the results in value chains and exports remain weak, as no data on agricultural product tracking or international sales had been recorded in the systems by June 2026. This is despite targets of up to $18 million in exports and $5 million in online sales. Funding disbursement levels varied, with approximately 48.5% of the total $241 million allocated so far, leaving risks to the overall achievements ongoing. The program aims to promote agricultural sustainability and climate change adaptation. It is expected to significantly contribute to improving production and empowering farmers economically in the long term.
