Jordan GDP Annual Growth Rate
The Jordanian economy is dominated by tourism, financial services, transportation, manufacturing and remittances from Jordanians working abroad. Jordan's lack of arable land and insufficient supplies of water means that agriculture is mostly a non-relevant sector and that the country invests heavily in water recycling.
