The Third Scientific Conference of Agricultural Science المؤتمر العلمي الثالث للعلوم الزراعية

The agricultural and livestock sector in Libya faces many challenges, especially under conditions of lack of water resources, deterioration of vegetation cover, poor productivity of local breeds, and economic and political instability. The agricultural and animal sector, regardless of all the obstacles and challenges, and therefore this conference came to be a new episode in the series of conferences and seminars held by the University of Misurata for researchers and specialists to discuss many axes related to agricultural sciences in various fields and contribute to the transfer of the results of applied research related to benefit from everything that is New in scientific research to achieve sustainable development.
