Tirana&#8217;s agricultural and water issues<\/h3><p>The first day began with a workshop on agricultural issues in the Tirana metropolitan area, highlighting several challenges:<\/p><ul><li>Rapid urbanisation, which is reducing agricultural land close to the city, despite the protections provided by the local urban development plan.<\/li><li>Low levels of mechanisation, farms that are too small and difficult working conditions, limiting competitiveness on national and European markets.<\/li><li>A crisis of vocation: younger generations are leaving the countryside due to a lack of training and prospects.<\/li><li>Low agricultural incomes, linked to marketing difficulties and low value-added products.<\/li><\/ul>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section

Saint-Georges<\/h3><p data-start=\"2312\" data-end=\"2584\">The second day was devoted to field visits. The visit to the village of Saint-Georges, located about 1 hour and 15 minutes from Tirana, provided an opportunity to talk to farmers who confirmed the observations made the previous day: low mechanisation, limited plots, modest incomes and highly seasonal production. <\/p><p data-start=\"2586\" data-end=\"2939\">Nevertheless, the village has potential for agri-tourism development: existing farm sales, hiking trails and local heritage. However, infrastructure, such as narrow roads, limits large-scale tourism development. Promoting local products, particularly the water mill, remains an important challenge.  <\/p><p data-start=\"2586\" data-end=\"2939\">Saint-Georges also enjoys good visibility thanks to an annual cultural event, the Tomato Festival, as well as its local products, including a variety of tomato grown exclusively on site.<\/p><p data-start=\"2941\" data-end=\"3282\">On the way back to Tirana, the team also visited a farm on the outskirts of the city. The farmer, who was well organised in his marketing channels, was earning a decent income but was concerned about the takeover of his land after his retirement, illustrating the issue of the transfer of agricultural practices. <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element
