He said Egypt accounts for roughly one-fifth of world production and described cooperation with the UAE on farming, processing, packaging and exports since 2015.

Support included upgrades in Siwa and New Valley, refrigerated storage in Bahariya and assistance with quality certification. The figures represent the official's account of sector performance; the festival's announced run ended on October 16.
