Descripción
The newsletter covers the broad area of FAO in Saudi Arabia. In the framework of the FAO Technical Cooperation Programme, it strengthens the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture (MEWA) capacity to implement its Sustainable Rural Agricultural Development Programme (2019–2025). The project is being implemented with MEWA, Reef and National Cover and Vegetation Center Development and Combating Desertification (NCVC) in nine components across Saudi Arabia, i.e., coffee, beekeeping, roses, sub-tropical fruits, livestock, fisheries, rain-fed cereals, value addition and natural resources management covering forests, national parks, rangelands and controlling desertification. The main objectives of the project are to increase production and productivity while managing natural resources and promote diversification and income generation for smallholders, in particular rural youth and women.
