Agriculture is one of the most inclusive sectors. In the citrus value-chain, for example, experts from our scientific consortium go out on site several times a year to train farmers in subjects such as irrigation, fertilization, pollination, orchard maintenance and pruning, harvesting and post-harvest storage.
In addition, each year we support AlUla students within institutions as prestigious as the Center for International Cooperation in Agronomic Research for Development (CIRAD) and the National Institute of Agronomic Research (INRAE) of Corsica. Through the training of these young people, we are giving local communities the means to participate fully in the transformation of their agriculture.
