Qabil Ashirov read more There is great potential for the development of cooperation in
the agricultural sector between Azerbaijan and Israel, Azernews
reports, citing Azerbaijan's Agriculture Minister Inam Karimov
speaking at the Azerbaijani-Israeli Innovation Forum.
“Today, relations between Azerbaijan and Israel are at a very
high level, and there is great potential for the development of
mutual cooperation in the field of agriculture,” Inam Karimov
said.
The minister noted that the Israeli-Azerbaijani Agriculture
Business Forum was already held in Tel Aviv in 2021. Meetings
between businesspersons of both countries were held at the forum,
and 'the conducted negotiations served the formation of our
economic and commercial cooperation'.
He also touched on the joint activities in the education sector
between Israel and Azerbaijan and mentioned that Azerbaijani
students were involved in the internship program within the
framework of cooperation with Israel.
'They were in Israel to learn about Israel's advanced
agricultural and technological know-how.'
“Holding such events indicates the development of common
business interests and high-level relations between Azerbaijan and
Israel,” the minister added.
Moreover, Inam Karimov spoke about the liberated territories and
underscored their agricultural importance and green energy
potential.
'The liberated territories have a wide agricultural potential
and were declared Green Energy Zones. Considering this, Israeli
companies can share their most advanced technologies and
experiences with us,' Inam Karimov said.
The minister noted that the production, export, and domestic
consumption of agricultural products has increased slightly over
the past five years.
'The development of agriculture in Azerbaijan is a priority
direction according to the strategy until 2026. Innovations and
technologies will be applied to improve the quality of land that is
unsuitable for agriculture, and we are confident that positive
results will be achieved. Israel has increased its agricultural
production 17 times over the past 15 years, and we are interested
in developing relations with Israel,” the minister underscored.
