The liberation of the occupied zone in South Lebanon and the July war in 2006.
To these changes in the structure of the agricultural sector, we must add the many distractions of land for agricultural purposes operated for the benefit of urbanisation in the different regions of the country.
This is in response to demand from decision-makers and actors involved in the agricultural sector, especially that of His Excellency the Minister of Agriculture, that the "Observatory" project Lebanese for Agricultural Development " has undertaken to carry out a new census of agriculture in its main component "Basic Module of the Agricultural Census" for the campaign in 2010. This will allow, on the one hand, the updating of statistical data which are and on the other hand, the continuation of economic analysis of the agricultural sector in the the effect of supporting and implementing the Ministry of Agriculture's strategy designed to 2010-2014.]]>
