Oil rich Azerbaijan realizes lasting prosperity necessitates tapping 40% of its land amenable for farming beyond hydrocarbons, especially with food import bills crossing $1.5 billion annually even while rural unemployment persists! Yet aging equipment, climate vagaries and infrastructure gaps keep agriculture productivity muted under 6% of GDP despite natural bounties allowing healthy cultivation of grains, fruits and vegetables potentially!
The government hence now takes agri-reboot seriously by wooing commercial investors into joint venture farming models, subsidizing machinery purchases for mechanization uptick while expanding cold storages and distribution logistics for reducing post-harvest losses and enhancing domestic market access to start with. Moreover, sustainability solutions encompassing climate smart irrigation techniques, conservation agriculture principles and targeted agroforestry also warrant emphasis to balance production gains with ecological stability over the long-term.
