Saudi Arabia must import the overwhelming share of its food, and due to the withering heat, nutritious fruit and vegetables can spoil quickly.
Female entrepreneurs in Saudi Arabia are pioneering innovative approaches to build a climate-resilient local food supply, as highlighted in a recent Fortune article. These women are leveraging technology and sustainable practices to address the challenges posed by the region's harsh climate and limited water resources. Key initiatives include the development of hydroponic and vertical farming systems, which use significantly less water and land than traditional farming methods. Additionally, these entrepreneurs are fostering community engagement and education to promote sustainable agriculture and food security. Their efforts are supported by government policies aimed at diversifying the economy and promoting gender equality, marking a significant shift towards a more sustainable and inclusive food system in Saudi Arabia.
