Farming & Agriculture in Cyprus: The Island's Agricultural Heritage and Future

Agriculture has been central to Cyprus's identity and economy for thousands of years. Today, despite the sector's relative decline as a share of GDP, farming remains a vital part of the island's culture, landscape, and food security — producing some of the Mediterranean's most celebrated products and supporting rural communities across the island.

Key Agricultural Sectors in Cyprus

  • Dairy & Halloumi Production: Cyprus is globally renowned as the home of halloumi (χαλλούμι), a protected designation of origin (PDO) cheese. Dairy farmers — primarily in the Nicosia and Famagusta regions — supply the goat and sheep milk that underpins this iconic export product. Many farms operate their own small dairies and sell directly to consumers and processors.
  • Viticulture & Wine Production: The Troodos Mountain foothills, particularly around Limassol, are home to some of the world's oldest cultivated grape varieties, including Xynisteri and Mavro. Cyprus's wine industry ranges from large cooperative producers to boutique family wineries offering agrotourism experiences.
  • Olive Cultivation & Olive Oil: Olive groves are a defining feature of the Cypriot landscape. The island produces high-quality extra virgin olive oil, with production concentrated in the Paphos and Limassol districts. Many small producers sell their oil locally and through export channels.
  • Citrus & Fruit Production: The coastal plains of Morphou Bay and the Famagusta region are traditionally Cyprus's most productive citrus-growing areas. Oranges, lemons, grapefruit, and mandarins are grown for both domestic consumption and export.
  • Vegetable & Greenhouse Farming: Year-round warm temperatures enable extensive vegetable production, including potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, and peppers. Cypriot new potatoes — particularly those grown in the Paphos region — are a valued export commodity.
  • Carob Cultivation: Cyprus is one of the world's leading carob producers. The carob tree, known as the "black gold" of Cyprus, produces pods used in food manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, and animal feed.
  • Agricultural Supplies & Services: Our directory also covers the suppliers, cooperatives, machinery dealers, irrigation specialists, and agrochemical providers supporting Cyprus's farming community.

Agriculture's Future in Cyprus
