The Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture has announced that it has allocated RS 1,617,831 ($431,422) to 165 farmers over the last 8 months as part of the production support plan. biological. The Saudi Organic Farming Society will visit these farms and prepare them for inspection and certification.
 
 
 
In 2000 the number of farms certified organic was only 10. Today, it is several hundred and the areas are also growing (37,000 hectares in 2015).
