Alrasheed Greenhouses partners with Dutch firm Plantlab in Saudi food security boost
Saudi Arabia
will see a cut in the imports of leafy crops thanks to a new partnership
between agricultural firms in the Kingdom and Dutch food products supplier "Plantlab".
As per the
agreement, local production of such food in the Kingdom will be set at the
highest international indoor farming standards, thus limiting imports of leafy
greens into the Saudi market.
This deal
comes as the Kingdom seeks to improve its food security in line with Vision
2030 goals, as it promotes the diversification of domestic exports.
