Rapid Urbanization
An article published in 2024 on the website of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), the urban population in Egypt was 43.1% of total population in 2023. Urbanization typically correlates with population growth and rising incomes, leading to increasing demand for food, including fruits, vegetables, dairy products, and meat. As urban populations are expending, there is a greater need to produce food to feed these populations. The increase in this demand is influencing the agriculture sector to grow, which is also opening doors for farmers to supply ready-to-eat (RTE) and processing food items in urban areas.
Furthermore, urbanization stimulates the development of agricultural supply chains to meet the demand for food in urban areas. This includes investments in transportation networks, cold storage facilities, processing plants, and wholesale markets to ensure efficient distribution of agricultural products from rural areas to urban markets. The development of robust supply chains is supporting the growth of the agriculture market by facilitating the movement of goods and reducing post-harvest losses. In line with this, urbanization creates new market opportunities for agricultural producers, including direct sales to urban people through farmers' markets, supermarkets, and online platforms.
Increasing Agricultural Exports
According to the content published on the website of Egypt State Information Service, Egypt's agricultural exports in the first quarter of 2024 have reached $1.5 billion, an increase of $300 million compared to the same period in 2023. Exporting agricultural products allows Egyptian farmers and agribusinesses to access international markets and earn foreign exchange. Higher export revenues can contribute to increased investments in the agriculture sector, including modernization, technology adoption, and infrastructure development. In addition, expanding agriculture exports diversifies the market base for Egyptian producers, reducing dependence on domestic demand fluctuations. Besides this, broad access to international markets can help to reduce these risks by allowing companies to benefit from a more diverse range of demand sources, and in turn, less risk of oversupply and price volatility on the domestic market.
Moreover, export-oriented agriculture worldwide comes with requirements of international standards and certifications driving technology transfer and best practices adoption. Working with international partners and getting connected to the market across the globe creates an environment potential to dig into the roots of innovation and knowledge exchange in the agriculture sector in Egypt.
