The arrival of Egyptian tomatoes in Tunisian markets has sparked debate over their quality, amid claims that some of the fruit was spoiled and irrigated with wastewater. The head of Egypt’s Agricultural Quarantine Authority denied the allegations, stressing that exported crops are subject to inspection and oversight and that the authority had received no official complaints. The head of Egypt’s Farmers’ Syndicate attributed the tomato crisis in Tunisia and other North African countries to climate change, noting that Egypt’s expanding farmland and varied growing seasons had helped it maintain production. Egyptian agricultural exports reached about 9.5 million tonnes in 2025, an increase of nearly 800,000 tonnes over 2024.
