Lebanon's Agriculture Loses 1B Dollars
Lebanese Ministry of Agriculture reports reveal that damages to the agricultural sector due to the war have exceeded one billion dollars. Approximately 77% of the lands in the South and Nabatieh have been affected. The losses in agricultural assets and facilities are estimated at around 220 million dollars. Additionally, production has declined due to farmers' difficulty in accessing their lands, which constitute about 53% of agricultural areas, leading to the loss of three full agricultural seasons. The damages include trees and perennial crops such as olives and citrus, which will require years of rehabilitation. Other sectors, including beekeeping and livestock, have also been impacted, further exacerbating pressures on Lebanon's food security.
