A first: Egypt agricultural exports exceed 5.6 million tons

Egypt’s Agriculture Minister al-Sayed al-Quseir has announced that, for the first time in the history of Egyptian agricultural exports, these exports have exceeded 5.6 million tons, a figure not achieved even during pre-COVID times, he said.

Mr Quseir said that this was thanks to efforts by the government to promote exports through opening new markets, and modernising and upgrading the agriculture quarantine laboratories with state-of-the-art equipment.

The Agriculture Minister thanked the producers, growers, and exporters for their efforts to comply with international quality standards, so that a record figure of exports was achieved despite the COVID-related disruption in international shipping and trade. He also praised the workers at the agriculture quarantine authority for what he said was their “round the clock efforts” to facilitate the export of agricultural goods.

A report by Ahmed al-Attar, Head of the Central Administration for Agriculture Quarantine indicated that in the period from 1 January 2021 to 31 December 2021, agricultural exports from Egypt amounted to 5,640,144 tons, compared to 5,153,376 tons during the previous year.

Exports included, in descending order of quantities exported: citrus, beetroot, potatoes, onions, grapes, sweet potatoes, pomegranate, mangoes, strawberries, green beans, garlic, guava, water melon, and peppers.

Watani started as an Egyptian weekly Sunday newspaper published in Cairo. The word Watani is Arabic for “My Homeland”. The paper was founded in 1958 by the prominent Copt Antoun Sidhom (1915 – 1995), who strove for the establishment of a civil, democratic society in Egypt, where all Egyptians would enjoy full citizenship rights regardless of their religious denomination. To this day when Watani is published as a weekly paper and an online news site, the objective remains the same. Those in charge of Watani view this role as a patriotic all-Egyptian vocation. Special attention is given to shedding light on Coptic culture and tradition as authentically Egyptian, this being a topic largely disregarded or little-understood by Egypt’s media. Watani is deeply dedicated to offer its readers high quality, extensive, objective, credible and well-researched media coverage, with special focus on Coptic issues, culture, heritage, and contribution to Egyptian society.
