TunisiaThe Palestinian Authority and the European Union support Gaza farmers with €3.7 million
The Palestinian Authority’s programme “Private Sector Reconstruction Gaza – Agriculture” is providing an integrated package of support to Palestinian farmers in the Gaza Strip. This EU-funded programme is helping Palestinian farmers throughout the Gaza Strip affected by the Israeli occupation in restoring their businesses.
The new contribution of €3.7 million targets 178 additional famers and agro-businesses to relaunch, repair or replace damaged businesses. It covers wide range of activities including the acquisition of agricultural supplies, rehabilitation of land and other small infrastructure works. In particular, the Palestinian Authority will rehabilitate 22 water wells to irrigate about 2800 dunums, supply 15 agricultural tractors, provide 118 livestock farms including 2600 heads of livestock and construct 37 greenhouses units. This brings the total number of beneficiaries of the programme until today to 259 farmers.
