JALALABAD (Pajhwok): Officials of the Canal Department in eastern Nangarhar province on Sunday said the olive processing plant would process 900 tonnes of olives this year, of which 10 tonnes would be pickled and the rest would be used for oil production.
The Olive Processing Factory, built nearly five decades ago to process the Nangarhar Canal olives, has just begun processing this year's olive crop.
Officials hope that Nangarhar's olive oil and pickles will find a special place in the world market because they are considered to be the best in terms of quality and internationally valuable.
