The Syria crisis has compounded
the already difficult economic situation in the majority of Syria’s neighboring
countries. While overall economic growth is slowing down in all neighboring
countries (i.e. Egypt, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey), exports, tourism and
transportation have all been negatively affected owing to the interruption of
trade routes and the deterioration of regional and national security, according
to the Syrian Economic Forum.
While the Syria crisis is affecting all sectors in neighboring countries, its impact on the agriculture and food sectors is particularly important being the main source of income for a significant proportion of the population, particularly for the poorest segments in rural areas and vulnerable communities. While the share of the agriculture sector in gross domestic product ranges from 4 percent in Jordan to over 15 percent in Egypt, the sector employs the majority of the rural population in these countries. Importantly, agriculture is the main source of livelihood for the majority of communities hosting Syrian refugees in Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon and Turkey. With its strong forward and backward linkages within rural settings and with other sectors of the economy, agriculture is a major source of stimulus for growth and income generation in these countries.
