Earlier Report Observations

From 2018 to 2021, the Jordanian in-shell almonds market saw production drop from 1 685 t to 1 409 t in 2019 and then stabilize around 1 403 t in 2020, before recovering to 1 535 t in 2021. Market volume followed a similar path, declining from 2 021 t to 1 748 t in 2019 and 1 723 t in 2020, then rising to 1 758 t in 2021. Regulatory reforms introduced in 2018, including new legislation for agricultural lands and production regulation under the economic modernization vision, along with improvements in marketing systems and agricultural training, aimed at strengthening the sector's foundation.

Production and market volume expanded significantly from 2022 onward. Output rose to 1 848 t in 2022 and surged to 2 652 t in 2023, while market size reached 2 107 t and then 2 875 t, respectively. The dominance of the United States in the global almond market, with production of 1.18 million metric tons in the 2023–2024 season, increased Jordan’s reliance on imports and encouraged domestic cultivation to boost self-sufficiency, contributing to the sharp rise in local output.
