Welcome to Palestine’s Virtual Agricultural Extension Center (VAEC) web portal. Our portal is designed to serve the needs of farmers, extension officers, researchers, business owners and investors. We also welcome visits from the general public and stand ready to provide assistance and information on all areas of our work.
Our goal is to provide portal visitors with up-to-the-minute news and information about our work as well as new developments in the agricultural sector in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (oPt). The portal is structured to serve as a two-way communication channel and virtual information resource center for the agricultural extension advisory system in Palestine.
VAEC works hand-in-hand with relevant government and donors entities in the oPt to improve agricultural development, conserve our natural resources, build public awareness and to strengthen the agricultural infrastructure of our local communities. The portal will provide users a one-stop-shop for information on new and ongoing projects, upcoming events, relevant business information and career opportunities. VAEC is also committed to investment promotion in the Palestinian agriculture sector at local, regional and international levels and is ready to assist investors and donor agencies seeking to further improve the delivery of agricultural extension services.
We welcome your input on how we improve the portal to better serve your needs. Operators are standing by in our Live Chat room to take your questions and comments during regular business hours. You may also leave us a message and one of our agricultural experts will respond within 24 hours.
