Syrian state news agency SANA reported that the main topic of the discussion was a support program addressing the priorities of Syrian agriculture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The discussions covered plans to revive pistachio production and the infrastructure for olive oil production, including olive planting areas and fruit processing facilities. Challenges faced by the livestock sector were also addressed and are expected to be included in the future recovery plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The meeting also included Isabelle Liou, World Bank officer responsible for the agricultural sector in Syria and Lebanon, and Syria\u2019s Deputy Minister of Agriculture, Bassel al-Suwaidan. He said the sector requires broad recovery, as well as the introduction of technologies to enable efficient water use. Liou, in turn, said studies are underway to identify the strengths and weaknesses of Syrian agriculture, as well as to analyze its potential and the basic inputs needed for the sector, which is considered strategic for Syria\u2019s recovery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Read more<\/em>:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/syrias-economy-shows-signs-of-recovery\/\">Syria\u2019s economy shows signs of recovery<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Translated by Guilherme Miranda<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"credits-overlay\" data-target=\".wp-image-401030\">\u00a9Omar Albaw\/Middle East Images via APF<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A meeting between Ministry of Agriculture officials and the bank began discussing plans to revive sectors such as pistachio and olive production, as well as livestock.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2316,"featured_media":401030,"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":[28822,10274,31526,29283,7962,10767,9857,18565,14869,9611,2223],"class_list":{"0":"post-401063","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-agribusiness","8":"tag-agricultura-en","9":"tag-agriculture-en","10":"tag-azeite-en-2","11":"tag-infraestrutura-en","12":"tag-infrastructure","13":"tag-livestock-en","14":"tag-olive-oil-en","15":"tag-pistachio","16":"tag-siria-en-2","17":"tag-syria-en","18":"tag-world-bank"},"wps_subtitle":"A meeting between Ministry of Agriculture officials and the bank began discussing plans to revive sectors such as pistachio and olive production, as well as livestock.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/401063","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=401063"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/401063\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/401030"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=401063"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=401063"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/anba.com.br\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=401063"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
