Farmers' Union Calls for Increasing Olive Oil Storage Capacity

The Tunisian Farmers' Union has called for increasing the storage capacity for olive oil and providing financial support to farmers ahead of the harvesting season.

According to the economic advisor to the organization, Fathi Ben Khalifa, these demands came after the narrow cabinet meeting dedicated to monitoring the new season's procedures.

Farmers are seeking to avoid storage crises and price collapses at the peak of local production.

Agricultural departments are awaiting practical decisions to ensure funding for processing operations and the valorization of national exports.
