Egypt is looking for solutions to the economic crisis (Press Bee) 

January 25, 2023


Press Bee writes in an article about how Egypt is dealing with the economic crisis that has turned into a food crisis. The country, it writes in an article is too reliant on exports and the government wants to reduce the unemployment rate by relying on domestic production. The government wants to expand the field of agricultural reform and development in 2023, as part of the sustainable development strategy 2030, which aims to benefit from technology to increase production and the effective use of water resources. 

The agricultural sector receives continuous support from many international agencies such as the United States Agency for International Development and the International Food Policy Research Institute, which developed an agricultural map of Egypt, showing national and international agricultural projects throughout the country and providing information on their cost and status, type of financing and donors, and it also provides many social indicators at the level of each governorate, according to the study.
