PAPAYA FARMING IN JAZAN, SAUDI ARABIA - Papaya Farming In Jazan, Saudi Arabia

Red Lady papaya is a common variety found in Jazan's papaya farms.

Tropical fruits such as bananas, papayas, oranges, pomelos, and coffee, native to both tropical and non-tropical regions, may also be considered high-value crops in Jazan, Saudi Arabia, due to its fertile agricultural soils.

In other parts of Saudi Arabia, particularly in the central region, vegetables and fruits are cultivated in greenhouses to ensure the optimal temperature conditions for the crops. Meanwhile, in the southern areas such as Jazan and Aseer, farmers grow these crops in open fields without greenhouses, as the climate there is similar to or approximates a tropical environment.
