Mangoes from Naeema Al Amiri’s garden

Embracing modern farming techniques

At the heart of Naeema's award-winning garden is a serene lake that serves
as a vibrant habitat for an array of fish. This aquaponic system allows the

nutrient-rich water from the lake to be circulated and utilised as a natural
fertiliser for Naeema's diverse array of plants. "From beekeeping to fish
farming, I expanded my interests and gradually embraced modern farming
techniques," she explained.

Complementing the lake is an advanced underground irrigation system
Naeema has implemented to minimise water waste and evaporation. This

strategic approach to water management reflects her commitment to
sustainability and responsible resource use.
