APN | Palestine

1 January 2025

As 2024 came to a close, APN achieved a remarkable milestone by planting three million fruit trees in Palestine, marking the beginning of the journey toward the fourth million.

Over the past year alone, APN planted 99,458 fruit trees across 3,881 dunums in the West Bank, directly supporting 1,076 farmers and benefiting 6,621 individuals. In Gaza, despite the horrors of the genocidal war imposed by the occupation, APN successfully planted over 1,743,600 vegetable seedlings, including tomatoes, cucumbers, zucchini, eggplants, cabbage, cauliflower, chard, and other crops, across approximately 900 dunums, benefiting 422 farmers who support a total of 2,657 individuals.

Since its founding in 2003, APN has cultivated approximately 147,224 dunums across various areas of Palestine, directly supporting 34,703 farmers and their families, amounting to around 249,171 individuals. These efforts demonstrate that steadfastness takes root through tireless dedication.

This achievement was made possible through the synergy of efforts and the collective contributions of partners and donors—both institutions and individuals—who believe firmly that agriculture is the seed of steadfastness and the optimal path toward achieving food sovereignty.
