Tunisia-Noureddine Ben Ayed: “We demanded, and we are still demanding, establishment of National Council for Food Security” [Video]

Speaking to Tunisie Numérique, President of the Tunisian Union of Agriculture and Fisheries Noureddine Ben Ayed called on the Ministry of Agriculture to activate and focus the National Council for Food Security, which is comprised of experts and specialists in agriculture, to develop strategies that ensure the achievement of food security for Tunisia.

The President of the Tunisian Union of Agriculture and Fisheries alerted of the gravity of the situation for farmers, as many sectors have been impacted by this situation, most notably the large agricultural sector, in which work must be done to accomplish self-sufficiency, and this matter is not possible to happen in a year. Rather, there must be continuous and joint work, according to him.
