Natural pasture restoration at 58 sites
The National Center for Vegetation Development and Combating Desertification has launched a plan to rehabilitate natural pastures across the Kingdom. Over the past two years, more than 51,000 hectares have been rehabilitated through the scattering of 109 tons of seeds, encompassing 40 different plant species. The plan for the current year aims to rehabilitate over 60,000 hectares across 70 sites, including 15 Wadi and pasture areas, using more than 110 tons of seeds representing 70 species. The goal is to reach 350,000 hectares by 2030. The plan emphasizes the quality of seeds through advanced testing, aligning seed dispersal with cloud seeding to enhance germination chances and improve the sustainability of the vegetation cover. This effort supports the Saudi Green Initiative and the achievement of sustainable development goals.
