Saudi: Seeds, fertilizers prices lower than in neighbouring countries

The undersecretary of the Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture (MEWA) Eng. Ahmed Al-Ayada has confirmed that the prices of seeds and fertilizers in Saudi Arabia are lower than in neighbouring countries. Fertilizers in Saudi Arabia have not seen an increase in prices for six months compared to other countries, he said.

Al-Ayada noted that the prices of seeds have increased worldwide, not only in the Kingdom, hoping that the increase will restore the balance of prices, noting that there are many types of seeds that have not witnessed a rise in their prices, such as wheat as in other countries. Three companies did not raise their prices until after coordination with the ministry.
