Arab countries investing $92bln to ensure food security | ZAWYA MENA Edition:

"A massive food deficit in the Arab region could be slashed by more than 60 per cent by 2030, according to an Arab League expert. The region spends $35 billion annually on importing produce due to a lack of homegrown crops and fertile land for grazing livestock. However, Arab countries are investing $92bn to develop their own sources, said Arab Organisation for Agricultural Development director general Professor Ibrahim Ahmed El Dukheri."
