Agriculture in the region during the Italian era 1922-1940AD

Abstract

The research dealt with agricultural activity in the Cyrenaica region during the Italian occupation (1922-1940 AD), through studying the colonial policy applied by the Italian government in the region, and the accompanying procedures and legislation that enabled the colonists to settle agriculturally, which resulted in the acquisition of fertile agricultural lands in the Cyrenaica region, controlling and depleting its capabilities, and directing them to serve the Italian economy, and thus this control caused The economic situation of the local population deteriorated, whose livelihoods were limited, and they found themselves between two options: either migrating outside the country in pursuit of their livelihood, or working as low-priced workers for the Italian colonists in their lands that were usurped from them.
