Publication Date: 22.10.2025, 10:00

The partnership will focus on areas such as sustainable farming, digital agriculture, soil health, and climate-smart practices.

Saudi Agricultural and Livestock Investment Company (SALIC), wholly owned by Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund, and Syngenta Crop Protection have signed a Letter of Intent to collaborate on agricultural projects that support food security and sustainability in Saudi Arabia and other markets.

The agreement outlines plans to explore joint initiatives in sustainable farming, digital agriculture, soil health, and crop protection. The partners intend to identify opportunities in areas such as climate-smart practices, water conservation, soil regeneration, and digital farm management systems.

According to the companies, the collaboration seeks to integrate technology, knowledge, and responsible practices to enhance productivity while conserving natural resources.

Suliman Al-Rumeih, Group CEO of SALIC, said the partnership underscores the company’s “commitment to innovation, sustainability, and global collaboration,” adding that it aims to “empower farmers, conserve resources, and build resilient food systems that strengthen Saudi Arabia’s food security.”

Alexander Berkovskiy, Regional Director for Asia, the Middle East and Africa at Syngenta, said the alliance would help transform agriculture through “innovative and sustainable solutions, infrastructure, education and training to equip farmers for success.”

Working groups will be established to identify and prioritize specific projects contributing to Saudi Arabia’s food security goals, aligned with the country’s Vision 2030 strategy.

SALIC invests across the agri-food value chain to support national food resilience, while Syngenta operates in more than 90 countries developing crop protection and seed technologies to improve farm productivity and sustainability.
