This is the second partnership signed by the FAO with Jordan this year (<em>more information at the link at the end of the text<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to information from Jordan\u2019s Ministry of Agriculture released on Tuesday (25) by the state news agency Petra, the first joint project aims to improve the genetic composition of almonds grown in the country. This initiative will aim to document and analyze local varieties, and then enhance their genetic material and develop new strains more resistant to climate change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another project will train agribusiness entrepreneurs to expand their access to both national and international markets, including through participation in agricultural events that promote the exposure of companies and their products. To achieve this, training, expansion of public-private partnerships (involving the government and private companies), and access to markets will be carried out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Petra, the Secretary-General of the Ministry of Agriculture, Mohammad Hayari, said these initiatives increase the competitiveness of Jordanian farmers. FAO\u2019 representative in the Arab country, Nabil Assaf, said the partnership marks a new step for the sector toward more sustainable production and also emphasized that the FAO is committed to supporting Jordan\u2019s agribusiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Read more:<\/em><br><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/fao-supporting-farmers-in-jordan\/\">FAO supporting farmers in Jordan<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Translated by Guilherme Miranda<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-383245\">Supplied\/Petra<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization will support the Arab country in two projects\u2014one focuses on the genetic improvement of almonds, and the other on training farmers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":383245,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[102],"tags":[51855,10274,52514,9827,9537,52515,5366],"class_list":{"0":"post-383276","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-agribusiness","8":"tag-agreements","9":"tag-agriculture-en","10":"tag-almonds","11":"tag-fao-en","12":"tag-jordan-en","13":"tag-ministry-of-agriculture-of-jodan","14":"tag-training"},"wps_subtitle":"The United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization will support the Arab country in two projects\u2014one focuses on the genetic improvement of almonds, and the other on training farmers.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383276","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2316"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=383276"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383276\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/383245"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=383276"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=383276"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=383276"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
