About Khalid

Khalid produces tomatoes, potatoes, cucumbers & eggplant. 17% of vegetables consumed in Qatar are sourced locally and he thinks that the local market size will be on the rise in the near future. Soil in Qatar may not be very fertile, and the water quality is not always great, but as agricultural technologies keep improving, there is no reason for Khalid’s business not to grow.
