Resumen
Descripción
The agriculture sector plays an important role in Egypt’s economy However, despite progress made over the past years in terms of yield increases, availability of agricultural land and productivity, the country’s food supply remains under pressure owing to key challenges, such as land and water scarcity and deterioration of their quality, low agricultural productivity and livelihood diversification, and rapid population growth Against this background, agricultural planning and attempts to develop realistic investment strategies and polices are greatly impeded by limited data availability and reliability The project aimed to assist the Government of Egypt in addressing the above mentioned challenges and sector needs by i fostering private sector participation in Egypt’s agriculture ii) strengthening public private policy dialogue iii) improving coordination among agricultural development stakeholders and iv) providing capacity development and assistance in technical and institutional aspects.
