The Importance of Internet Connectivity in Iraq’s Agricultural Sector

Iraq’s agricultural sector has long been a crucial part of the country’s economy, providing food and employment opportunities for millions of people. However, in recent years, the sector has faced numerous challenges, including droughts, conflicts, and economic instability. One of the most significant challenges facing the sector today is the lack of internet connectivity, which is hindering farmers’ ability to access vital information and resources.

Internet connectivity plays a crucial role in modern agriculture, providing farmers with access to real-time weather data, market information, and agricultural best practices. In Iraq, however, internet connectivity remains limited, with only around 20% of the population having access to the internet.
