More about Yemen
ECONOMY: AGRICULTURE, LIVESTOCK AND FISHING
Half of the active population is employed in agriculture, which contributes to a small share of GDP and is affected by various and significant limitations: the cultivation techniques are absolutely archaic (for example, irrigation is completely insufficient), so that it is much less flourishing. than the soil conditions would not allow: where in fact the land is suitably terraced and well irrigated, the soils have proved to be very fertile. The main food crops – however completely insufficient for the needs of the country – are cereals, in particular sorghum, followed by wheat, millet, barley and corn; legumes, potatoes, vegetables (dried onions, tomatoes, peppers) and fruit also have a certain importance: citrus fruits, grapes, watermelons, mangoes, bananas and dates, the latter two grown in the coastal strip of Tihamah. Here various commercial crops have been introduced with some success, such as sugar cane, castor, tobacco, cotton, in decline; the mountainous border of the Serat is instead suitable for coffee and qat, an evergreen shrub from whose leaves an amazing substance is obtained, considered light and whose consumption is widespread among Yemenis. Coffee, which for centuries was the country’s most important economic resource, continues to fuel exports. Livestock farming represents an important economic resource; the huge livestock patrimony includes goats, sheep (including the precious sheep that supply the skins of astrahan) and cattle; dromedaries, horses and donkeys are still widely used as means of transport. Fishing is practiced successfully; the best equipped center is the port of Hodeida.
ECONOMY: INDUSTRY AND MINERAL RESOURCES
The industrial activities are represented by small companies, which mostly process local agricultural or livestock products (textile plants, oil mills, tobacco factories, tanneries), to which are added some cement factories and plants for the production of plastic materials (Ta’izz). Yemeni handicrafts produce carpets, jewels, iron and glass objects. The subsoil guarantees reserves of copper, lead, zinc, molybdenum, nickel, gold, plaster and marble. Salt mines are located in different areas of the country. The exploitation of oil fields (Masilah and Ma’rib-Al Jawf) and natural gas (Ma’rib etc.) is of recent introduction; processing takes place in the Ma’rib and Little Aden refineries while plants for the production of LNG (liquefied natural gas) are under construction.
