He highlighted the need to address challenges arising from climate change, water scarcity, agricultural land degradation, and the spread of cross-border plant and animal diseases.

He noted that the ministry is working to develop and update national strategies related to agriculture and food security in line with current developments and emerging challenges.

The minister stressed the importance of directing development projects toward achieving sustainability and maximizing their long-term impact on local communities by improving livelihoods, increasing productivity, and supporting comprehensive rural development.
