Organic veggie prices triple regular costs
The article discusses the rising prices of organic vegetables in Dubai, where they can cost up to three times more than their conventional counterparts. Despite their high quality and health safety—due to the minimal use of chemical pesticides and modern cultivation techniques—this price gap is attributed to higher production costs, which range between 20-30%. The use of methods such as hydroponic farming and artificial intelligence technologies accelerates growth and reduces water and labor consumption, ensuring healthy, high-quality products. Although consumers are aware of the benefits, the high cost limits widespread adoption, with many opting for traditional products or limiting their purchases to those prioritizing quality and safety. Meanwhile, the government continues to support and regulate organic farming to ensure food security and sustainability.
