In 2018, Israel's vegetable exports to the Middle East and North African region were valued at 3.348 million U.S. dollars, while its imports were at 17.418 million U.S. dollars -- which puts it at a trade deficit of about 14.0374 million U.S. dollars. This was based from the latest data of the World Integrated Trade Solution.
