Saudi Food-Energy Talks
Saudi Arabia expanded its international coordination to strengthen food and energy security through its participation in G20 and Gulf Cooperation Council meetings. In October 2026, Riyadh hosted the 17th ministerial meeting of the International Energy Forum, announcing that more than 70 ministers and 300 officials and CEOs would take part. The Ministry of Energy signed a cooperation memorandum with the Forum on clean energy and the circular carbon economy, while the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture concluded a $5 million agreement to support agricultural research and innovation. These efforts coincided with agricultural and food production exceeding 16 million tonnes in 2024, the sector growing by more than 7% annually over five years, and a 52% reduction in the use of non-renewable water in agriculture compared with 2016.
