Tunisia's economy grew by 1.6% year on year in the first quarter of 2025, driven by the growth of the agricultural sector, the country's statistics institute said on Thursday.
The agricultural sector grew by 7% as a result of rainfall following a six-year drought.
During the first quarter of last year, economic growth did not exceed 0.3%.
