Saudi Riyal Code Enhances Water Efficiency and Farmers' Income
Saudi Arabia announced plans to increase water use efficiency in the agricultural sector to 70% by 2030, through the implementation of a irrigation practice code, expanding smart and model farms, all aimed at conserving water and promoting sustainability. Results from the implementation showed that farmers' income increased by between 15% and 20%, with irrigation efficiency improving by 40% and crop productivity rising by 15%. Additionally, the General Water Authority continues to carry out projects to expand the use of treated water, which currently accounts for 27.7% of all water produced, with the goal of increasing this to 70% by 2030. These efforts include the construction of dams and the development of smart farms to enhance water and food security in the Kingdom.
