Saudi Agricultural Exhibition Opens with Over SAR800 Million in Development Investments The Saudi Agricultural Exhibition highlights key investment opportunities and features cutting-edge technologies, solutions, and innovations in the agriculture sector. With participation from over 420 agricultural companies representing 29 countries, the event also saw the attendance of Qatari Minister of Municipality Dr. Abdullah bin Abdulaziz Al-Subaie. During his remarks, Alfadley emphasized the importance of strengthening national economic priorities and achieving food security in Saudi Arabia while striking a balance between agricultural development and the preservation of natural resources. This, he said, is key to enhancing sustainability and ensuring the protection of the environment and agricultural assets for future generations. Alfadley highlighted the significant economic growth of the agricultural sector over the past three years, attributing it to the unwavering support from the country’s leadership and to the ministry’s efforts to promote sustainable agricultural practices. These have led to the sustainability of agricultural production; the preservation of soil, water, and natural resources; and self-sufficiency in a variety of agricultural products. -------------------- During the exhibition, Alfadley witnessed the signing of 12 agreements and memoranda of understanding with total investments exceeding SAR800 million to bolster agricultural production in the Kingdom. The event also saw the launch of the KAUST Center of Excellence for Sustainable Food Security.
