In 2022, Algeria was the North African country with the highest contribution share of the agriculture, forestry, and fishing sector to the gross domestic product (GDP), with this industry constituting around 11.4 percent of the economy. Overall, the agriculture sector plays a vital role within the North African countries, contributing at least 10 percent to each national GDP of the region. The only exceptions are Sudan and Libya: Agricultural activities made up close to five percent and 1.6 percent of the GDP, respectively. For Sudan, the contribution of agriculture to the GDP dropped significantly compared to previous years in 2021 and 2022, as a result of several factors, among them severe changes to the climate, and the ongoing conflict between the Sudanese Armed forces and the Paramilitary group known as the Rapid Support Forces since mid-April 2023.
