Riyadh: The National Greening Program is making significant progress in environmental sustainability, aligned with the Saudi Green Initiative’s goal of planting 10 billion trees.
To achieve this, the program has introduced a mobile lab, a key tool that improves the efficiency and quality of afforestation efforts, according to a Saudi Press Agency report.
The lab conducts on-site analyses of soil, water, and plants, while monitoring environmental factors such as humidity and plant health.
By providing real-time data, it enables faster, more accurate decisions, improving seedling success rates, reducing losses, and lowering costs.
The data is instantly linked to the National Center for Vegetation Cover Development and Combating Desertification databases, the SPA reported.
This technology is a vital step toward rehabilitating 40 million hectares of land and combating desertification, reinforcing the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 goals.
