Yemen seeks to enhance agricultural production
A variety of official entities and civil society organisations are working together to expand the production of crops including coffee, grains, vegetables and fruits.
According to the Central Statistical Organisation, Yemen's production of crops such as grains, fruits, vegetables and animal feed declined 165,000 tonnes in 2013 compared to their production volume in 2012, while qat production increased by 3,000 tonnes in 2013.
