Olive Oil Tuberculosis Alert Amidst Poor Harvest
Tunisia has recorded the spread of olive branch rust disease in the forests of Mahdia and Sfax, with the appearance of cankerous wood on the trees, which transmits the infection through cuts during pruning. There are concerns that a 30 to 40 percent decline in the olive harvest this season will lead to a decrease in production, while olive oil prices are expected to rise due to their connection to the global market. The Tunisian Olive Union has called on the Ministry of Agriculture to intervene to prevent the spread of the disease and to protect this vital agricultural sector of the Tunisian economy.
