Saudi Arabia has nearly doubled its poultry production in the past decade<\/strong> as part of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman\u2019s push for food self-sufficiency, to address an 80% reliance on food imports that leaves the Kingdom vulnerable to shocks. Saudi Arabia\u2019s chicken production is growing at 6% a year \u2014 one of the fastest rates in the world, Bloomberg<\/a> said, citing consultancy firm Gira.<\/p>\n

ALSO FROM BLOOMBERG- Foreign miners seem to be more interested in taking home Saudi <\/strong>capital than committing their <\/strong>own funds towards local mining ventures<\/strong>, with downstream projects such as smelters and refineries also lagging behind in the local mining sector, the business information service<\/a> reports. Some investors are also hesitant to pump capital into Saudi before ongoing projects prove commercial viability. \u201cWe\u2019re at the show me stage,\u201d Canada Nickel CEO Mark Selby said at the Future Minerals Forum. <\/p>\n

Are we behind the eight ball on mining?<\/strong> \u201cI think we have a good base, but I wouldn\u2019t say it\u2019s happening fast enough,\u201d Industry and Mineral Resources Minister Bandar Alkhorayef said in an interview.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
