How Vision 2030 is Transforming Saudi Arabia Agriculture Industry

Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030 is revolutionizing the agriculture sector by prioritizing food security, economic diversification, and sustainable farming practices to reduce dependency on food imports. The initiative drives strategic investments in advanced agricultural technologies, including controlled-environment agriculture (CEA), hydroponics, and vertical farming systems that overcome the challenges of arid climate and water scarcity. With agricultural GDP reaching approximately SAR 114 billion (USD 31.5 billion) in 2024 and growing at over 7% annually, the transformation is reshaping the Kingdom's farming landscape. Government-backed programs provide up to 75% financing for greenhouse projects and modern irrigation systems, with tax holidays extending up to 10 years for qualifying agritech investments, catalyzing unprecedented growth in domestic production.

Saudi Arabia Agriculture Market Trends & Drivers:

Saudi Arabia's agriculture market is experiencing robust growth, driven by strategic government initiatives under Vision 2030 and significant private sector investments in innovative farming technologies. The sector contributed USD 31.5 billion to GDP in 2024, with total agricultural and food production exceeding 16 million tonnes, reflecting progress toward building resilient, sustainable food systems despite 90% of the country being desert terrain. The market is fueled by the Agricultural Development Fund's financial support, providing up to 75% financing for greenhouse projects and modern irrigation systems, enabling companies like Topian (NEOM subsidiary) to open a 4-hectare climate-resilient greenhouse facility in Oxagon, marking the Kingdom's largest single investment in precision horticulture.

The rapid expansion of controlled-environment agriculture and precision farming technologies is significantly boosting market demand. The growing adoption of hydroponics, vertical farming, and automated irrigation systems addresses the dual challenges of water scarcity and extreme climatic conditions while enhancing crop yields. With greenhouse production increasing by 58% from 257,000 tons to 407,000 tons over recent years, and aquaculture production jumping by 183% from 30,000 to 85,000 tons, the sector demonstrates remarkable technological transformation. Strategic partnerships between international agritech companies and local enterprises, such as FarmERP's collaboration with Seiyaj Tech and Brasil Foods' USD 160 million commitment to a Jeddah poultry plant with 40,000 metric tons annual capacity, are facilitating knowledge transfer and accelerating the adoption of advanced agricultural practices across the Kingdom.

The market's growth is further amplified by increasing self-sufficiency targets and organic farming expansion. Saudi Arabia achieved 129% self-sufficiency in dairy products (targeting 150% by 2030), 119% in dates, 100% in table eggs, and continues to expand production in vegetables, fruits, and poultry. Organic farming increased by 18% to 52,800 tons, driven by health-conscious consumers demanding nutritious and eco-friendly food products. The establishment of the Jeddah Food Cluster in 2024, expected to boost national food exports by SAR 8 billion annually and contribute SAR 7 billion to GDP over the next decade, exemplifies the Kingdom's commitment to value-added agriculture and processing. Additionally, environmental sustainability initiatives under the Saudi Green Initiative, with over 115 million trees planted and 118,000 hectares of degraded land rehabilitated by end of 2024, including the world's first solar-powered desalination plant providing eco-friendly irrigation water, demonstrate the sector's alignment with sustainable development goals and long-term food security objectives.
