Agriculture & Environment

Agriculture

Lebanon produces a variety of fruits and vegetables. The largest crops (more than 20 kilo tons in 2003) include potatoes, oranges, apples, tomatoes and grapes which are all grown and available in Southern Mount Lebanon. Exotic crops in the area are mostly avocados. Darouna works with local farmers to improve their yield and introduce new technologies to help them sell their produce locally..

Environment

Besides spearheading projects that clean the environment and increase awareness about the environment, south Mount Lebanon is in need of a replanting effort to plant trees. Darouna is active on all fronts.
