Syria invests in organic farming
The Syrian government is about to start the second step of the investment programme launched in 2006 to develop organic farming in the country, through farmers' education and infrastructures.
Syria is ready to launch the second step of the national project for the promotion of organic and quality farming. The Syrian government aims to spread awareness among producers about the great value of organic crops. The first part of the program started in 2006 with 20 training workshops throughout the country aimed at informing farmers about organic farming methods and interesting perspectives on the market for organic products.
The second step of the project involves the creation of infrastructures to support the launch of new productions. This stage should be completed in 2012. Syrian experts have decided to focus on traditional crops such as pistachios, olives, tomatoes and cotton. But in addition to the typical products of the country, new crops scarcely consumed in Damascus will be tested, such as cherries, citrus fruits and several vegetables.
