In light of the ongoing global efforts to find solutions that enhance the quality of human life and ensure the enjoyment of decent living, especially in the area of achieving food security, Bahrain is taking serious initiatives to adopt appropriate solutions to develop self-sufficiency.
To this end, we have issued directives to develop and implement a "strategic project for national food production", to include the allocation of multiple sites for aquaculture and plant production. The project aims primarily to develop the capacity of national food industries, to increase the proportion of local production, and to preserve the expertise of the professionals who play such an important part in the success of these projects.
