dc.descriptionThe impact of the crisis in the Syrian Arab Republic has placed even greater pressure on the country’s already fragile agriculture sector. The combination of droughts, a hasty reform and liberalization process, as well as global food price hikes, have resulted in an increase in the number of inhabitants living in a state of food insecurity, in particular in the northeastern part of the country, and led to an exodus of impoverished and resource-poor farmers and pastoralists to cities and urban areas, a factor now understood to have contributed to the ongoing crisis. The increased demand resulting from the ongoing crisis has negatively affected the country’s overall agricultural production and productivity, food security and socio-economic stability. There is therefore an urgent need to strengthen sustainable management of natural resources (water, land and soil) to ensure sustainable food production for the wellbeing of the Syrian people. In this context, the objective of the FAO Smallholder Support Programme(SSP) was for local-level intervention to empower, strengthen the capacities and build the resilience of smallholder farmers, helping them to become self-reliant within the country’s agriculture sector.
