In view of the importance of training human resources for the preparation of technical staff highly efficient in different agricultural fields, the Ministry of Agriculture and Water established several training centers in numerous agricultural regions (e.g. Riyadh, al-Qassim, al-Hofuf and Jizan) to train officials from the Ministry and farmers and their children. Also, Ministry officials and some farmers are being sent for training at international centers and universities which have particular specialties so that, on their return, they can apply their knowledge in the Kingdom, after adapting it to the agricultural needs and conditions of Saudi Arabia.
