Praising the ongoing work, governor al-Hadi highlighted the nursery as a key element in advancing the agricultural sector within the province.
He urged for a comprehensive plan to optimize the nursery's capacity for planting a variety of fruit trees and other agricultural crops to support local market needs and development goals.
