New farmer compensation system to be a price stabiliser for consumers — JFU
AMMAN — The newly endorsed compensation system for farmers affected by agricultural risks is a necessary step to enhance food security and promote the sustainability of the agricultural sector, according to General Manager of the Jordanian Farmers Union (JFU) Mahmoud Oran.
In an interview with The Jordan Times on Monday, Oran explained that this system aligns with amendments to the Agricultural Risk Management Fund Law No. 5 of 2009, which take into consideration climate-related risks that are impacting the Kingdom.
