Saudi Arabia Agritech Market Trends & Drivers:

Saudi Arabia's agritech market is experiencing exceptional growth driven by the government's Vision 2030 food security initiatives, with over USD 1 billion allocated to enhance plant resources and greenhouses by 2025, targeting annual fresh produce production of over 1 million tons. The Kingdom's focus on reducing food import dependency is accelerating adoption of cutting-edge agricultural technologies including hydroponics, vertical farming, and controlled-environment agriculture, with the Saudi Agricultural Development Fund disbursing USD 220 million specifically for vertical farm development by 2025.

The expansion of controlled-environment agriculture is revolutionizing food production capabilities, with climate-controlled greenhouses and indoor agriculture systems being adopted in urban locations like Jeddah and Dammam where traditional farming faces significant climatic challenges. These advanced systems are enabling year-round crop production with yields per square meter significantly higher than traditional methods, while technologies like drip irrigation and aeroponics are addressing water scarcity challenges that consume 80% of the Kingdom's water resources.

Strategic investments in mega-projects like NEOM and Red Sea Development Company are creating testbeds for next-generation agricultural technologies, with the $500 billion NEOM project incorporating cutting-edge vertical farming and hydroponic systems. Government-supported innovation programs are fostering collaboration between academia and private sector, with agritech accelerators and research grants facilitating technology localization and reducing foreign dependency while supporting locally-born startups in major cities like Riyadh and Dhahran.
