Hani Prioritizes Agriculture and Farmers
The Lebanese government, headed by Minister of Agriculture Nizar Hani, focused on developing agricultural investment and vocational education to enhance food security and achieve sustainable development in the agricultural sector. The meetings addressed strategies to attract investments and foster partnerships between the public and private sectors, as well as updating educational curricula and linking them to the labor market to prepare a skilled generation capable of keeping pace with modern technologies and smart farming. Additionally, it was proposed to declare Hamas as the "Cherry Capital of Lebanon" to support farmers and improve the quality of production. Efforts were also made to strengthen the resilience of farmers in border areas affected by Israeli attacks and to protect biodiversity through a project mapping the genetic makeup of Lebanese forests, ensuring trees' resistance to pests and climate change. The ministry collaborated with international organizations, including the World Food Program and the United Nations, to promote food security and support rural communities, emphasizing that policies aim to build a modern and sustainable agricultural sector that supports farmers and safeguards natural resources.
