Farmers Address Agriculture Minister After 6 Months
The Agriculture Parliamentary Committee's meeting discussed farmers' difficulties in reaching Minister of Agriculture Saib Khraisat, with farmers confirming the ongoing challenge for the past six months in securing a meeting to present their demands. The minister pointed out that the ministry's doors are open and stated that he has met with a farmer and a deputy in his office. He emphasized that permits for exporting female goats should not be granted, and announced the distribution of around one million dinars in compensation from the Agricultural Risks Fund. The farmers called for imposing a tariff on imported bananas and regulating fermentation processes within the central market, amid heightened tension between the sector and the relevant authorities.
