Saudi Arabia Bio Agriculture Market

Saudi Arabia Bio Agriculture Market Overview:

The Saudi Arabia bio agriculture market size reached USD 149.42 Million in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach USD 437.2 Million by 2033, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 12.67% during 2025-2033. The market is growing due to rising consumer demand for organic food, government initiatives promoting sustainable farming, and Vision 2030's focus on food security. Water scarcity drives the adoption of efficient bio-farming techniques, while increasing awareness of chemical-free agriculture accelerates the use of biofertilizers and biopesticides. International partnerships further support market expansion.

Saudi Arabia Bio Agriculture Market Trends:

Increasing Adoption of Organic Farming Practices

The significant shift toward organic farming due to rising health consciousness and government support is propelling the Saudi Arabia bio agriculture market growth. A research report from the IMARC group indicates that the organic food market in Saudi Arabia was valued at USD 2.1 Billion in 2024. It is projected to grow to USD 5.1 Billion by 2033, reflecting a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 9.4% from 2025 to 2033. Consumers are increasingly demanding pesticide-free, nutrient-rich produce, driving farmers to adopt sustainable practices. The Saudi Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture (MEWA) has launched initiatives such as the Organic Farming Program to encourage eco-friendly agriculture, offering subsidies and training to farmers. Additionally, the country’s Vision 2030 emphasizes food security and sustainability, further expanding the Saudi Arabia bio agriculture market share. While local supermarkets and web-based retailers are expanding their lines of organic food, the market for organic food in the locality is growing. Foreign exchange and international credibility are enhanced through partnerships with global organizations such as with European certifying bodies of organic products. The scarcity of water is a big issue, which is the reason farming, such as drip irrigation or hydroponics, is becoming more popular. They require as much water as possible in order for it to be the quality of harvest. Several farmers are coming to realize that organic farming is a long-term economic and environmental trend, and this trend is going to increase.

Growth of Biofertilizers and Biopesticides for Sustainable Crop Production

Another key trend in the market is the rising demand for biofertilizers and biopesticides as alternatives to chemical inputs. Farmers are increasingly adopting these biological solutions to enhance soil fertility and protect crops without harming the environment. The Saudi government is promoting bio-inputs through policies that restrict harmful agrochemicals and incentivize sustainable alternatives. Research institutions and agri-tech startups are also developing locally tailored biofertilizers to suit the region’s arid conditions. The shift toward bio-inputs aligns with global sustainability trends and meets the growing consumer preference for chemical-free food. Companies are investing in microbial and organic-based products, leveraging Saudi Arabia’s expanding biotech sector. Furthermore, the integration of precision agriculture technologies, such as IoT-enabled soil sensors, is optimizing the application of biofertilizers, improving efficiency. Studies among 229 olive farmers in Saudi Arabia's Al-Jouf region found that users of the Agricultural Guide application showed a 20% to 30% increase in the adoption of sustainable methods. Interestingly, irrigation and soil improvement practices were adopted at rates of 75% and 76%, respectively. The 206,000 farmers nationwide who have adopted the app have seen enhanced olive yields, higher income, and greater digital engagement. Additionally, a machine learning model has shown a 94% accuracy rate in predicting adoption of the app. As Saudi Arabia continues to advance in precision agriculture, these digital technologies are helping drive sustainability in its bio-agriculture industry. As awareness of soil degradation and chemical resistance grows, the biofertilizer and biopesticide market is poised for robust growth, creating a positive Saudi Arabia bio agriculture market outlook.
