Egypt's Sustainable Agricultural Development Strategy is concerned with the importance of expanding agricultural manufacturing in general and food in particular, by encouraging investors to establish integrated industrial agricultural communities in new lands including the territory of North Sinai Governorate, by raising the proportion of food manufacture for fruit implants s incomes, improving the self-sufficiency of vegetable oils and increasing the competitiveness of olive exports and oils.
Food manufacturing is one of the most important agricultural industries, with a production value of approximately Pound 38 billion, representing about 10.5٪ of the value of GDP for 2022, and olive oil in Egypt is known as good olive. Due to its high nutritional and medical value, it contains a high percentage of unsaturated single fatty acids, as well as a high content of vitamins and carotene.
North Sinai Governorate is one of the most promising governorates in the production of olive crops, ranking first on the list of horticultural planters, with a relative importance of approximately 38٪ during 2023. The North Sinai Governorate is also a promising governorate in the production of olive oil. It serves as Egypt's olive oil exchange, due to the quality of production and low acidity, so it controls the prices of raw olives and their production of oil by major producers and intermediaries.
