Description The availability of statistical data for the agricultural sector is necessary for drawing up policies and plans to develop this important sector. Agriculture plays a vital role and represents a significant share of the Palestinian Gross Domestic Product (GDP), and also of the Palestinian labour force. As a result of the non-implementation of the agricultural census, PCBS has made it a priority to conduct agricultural specialized surveys, Tree Horticulture survey one of these surveys where a statistical unit according to international recommendations

The importance of this survey is seen in light of the low quality of the present data related to the agricultural sector, which is based on estimates and using the locality as a statistical unit, whereas international recommendations use the agricultural holding as a statistical unit for agricultural statistics.

This survey makes available basic data about the Tree Horticulture sector in the Palestinian Territory needed by the data users such as the planners and concerned parties in the agricultural sector. The main beneficiaries of the data of this survey are the governmental institutions including the Ministry of Agriculture, the NGOs, the private sector, international institutions, research centers, universities and other institutions concerned with this type of data.

The Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics hopes that this report will enable planners to carry out their duties of caring and promoting the agricultural sector in the Palestinian Territory; and to enlighten decision and policy makers engaged in the comprehensive national development process.
