Najrani Oranges and Citrus Production Solidify Region's Role in Food Security

Agriculture has long been a pivotal force in the lives of the Najrani people, shaping the region's identity as a symbol of productivity and growth. This deep connection to the land, particularly renowned for its citrus fruits led by the famous Najrani oranges, is a cornerstone of the local economy.

 This commitment to agriculture is instrumental in bolstering local production and achieving food security for the Kingdom. Najran's favorable conditions, including a temperate climate, fertile soil, abundant water, and diverse topography, support the year-round production of numerous crops.

 Citrus fruits are among the most renowned products of Najran's farms, establishing the region as a leading national producer of various types, including oranges, tangerines, lemons, and grapefruits. These fruits generate substantial economic returns for farmers and significantly strengthen local food security.

 The Najrani orange has gained popularity, leading to increasing demand across the Kingdom. They maintain a distinguished presence at the annual citrus festival and various agricultural exhibitions, which support the region's economic, tourism, and cultural movement.

 Through these events, the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture provides crucial support, including agricultural guidance, improved seedlings, technical solutions, and the adoption of modern irrigation systems. These programs help farmers gain experience and skills, ultimately contributing to the improved quality of Najran's citrus fruits.
