Oman’s Food Production and Import Strategy
The article discusses the Sultanate of Oman’s strategy to enhance its food security through a combination of local production and diversification of import sources. It emphasizes improving resource efficiency, especially water usage, and developing modern agricultural technologies. Data indicates an increase in plant production from 3.0 million tons in 2020 to 4.1 million tons in 2025, along with significant rises in self-sufficiency rates for certain products—such as fish by 146% and dates by 99%. However, some commodities, like wheat, remain heavily reliant on imports, with self-sufficiency reaching only 2%. Aiming for an overall self-sufficiency rate of 67%, the strategy is supported by developing value chains, manufacturing projects, and expanding strategic reserves, all with a focus on sustainability and diversification of sources to ensure stable supplies and highly efficient food security.
