The Tabuk Region stands out with its diverse cultivation of both seeded and seedless table grapes, including unique varieties like "Prime", "Superior", "Red Globe", "Autumn Royal", and "Moon Balls". The region's 1,580,575 vines yield over 43,750 tons of the finest grape varieties annually, meeting local market demand. Tabuk's vineyards are known for their use of Spanish "arbor" system, which, combined with the region's favorable climate, soil, and water, creates ideal conditions for grape cultivation. The adoption of modern agricultural practices, such as EnviroSCAN for water irrigation control and electrostatic spraying equipment for efficient pesticide use, has significantly contributed to the maintenance of high-quality produce. Furthermore, farmers carry out irrigation and fertilization programs to prevent salt accumulation and preserve tree and soil health. The Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture branch in the region plays a crucial role in guiding farmers on how to use modern agricultura l methods and responsible pesticide and fertilizer usage. Ministry employees share their knowledge and experiences with local farmers through various educational events, including seminars, training courses, lectures, and workshops, equipping farmers with the information they need to succeed.
