              02    Agricultural Sector


             Understanding the need to amplify agricultural productivity in developing nations, the UAE has actively supported
             global agriculture projects. In 2022, the UAE contributed AED 55.0 million (USD 15.0 million) towards this sector.
             This includes aiding the development of sustainable agricultural production systems in Uzbekistan and supporting
             multiple irrigation systems projects in Serbia, aligning with the country’s agricultural development goals. Other
             nations, including Benin, Burkina Faso, Cote d’Ivoire, Gambia, India, and Mauritius, also received funding from the
             UAE to fortify their agricultural sectors.
