Investing in Saudi Arabia: Food Production With Efficient Water Consumption

“The big investment opportunities in agriculture will be in the food production with efficient water consumption. Greenhouses is an opportunity and different types of research to utilize seawater in agriculture could be an opportunity,” says Ali O. Al-Rakban, CEO of Al Safi.

“The Minister of Water stated that the consumption of water in the last 15 years for agriculture was equal to the domestic consumption of more than 1,000 years. These are scary figures. This is why we decided to move part of our feed production outside of Saudi.”
