Thanks to the long cooperation between France
and Lebanon, the bilateral cooperation in agriculture
in Lebanon works on several levels:
- on the institutional level: by supporting the
Lebanese Ministry of Agriculture in defining a
strategy for the Lebanese agriculture
- in collaboration with producers organizations:
by encouraging the development of producers cooperatives
- on farms level: by introducing substitution
crops and diversification (winegrape, for example)
MREA actions come on this national cooperation
plan by transferring its experiences in the irrigation
sector. The MREA actions in Lebanon, as in the
Palestinian Territories and Jordan, are focused
on irrigation techniques improvement, mostly concerned
with increasing the efficiency of water used in
agriculture.
