Study to search excellence in the agriculture and find solutions in making this sector more performant and competitive. This topic was driven by concerns from farmers in our village, Anjar (Bekaa), seeking to make profit from their crops. Unfortunately, the farmers in Lebanon do not have any government support and at the end of the season, if their crops survive they sell them at very low prices to commissioners and not directly to the shops. In order to study the agriculture sector in Lebanon and specifically of the Bekaa valley, we first sought to analyze agriculture situation in Lebanon. Then we did a SWOT analysis and studied the socio-economic background and the agro food sector in Lebanon including water and factors of productions. At the end of the research, we have explored the problem that hinders this sector and find solutions to make the agriculture sector more profitable. In this research, face-to-face interviews and an interview with the president of farmers syndicate Mr. Antoine Hwayek were conducted, in order to study deeply the current agriculture situation of Lebanon. Through this research, we will found that this sector could be profitable and competitive if it is provided by many solutions such as the establishment of a private agricultural bank, laboratories, good government support, and realizable export agreements with the MENA region.
