Sheikh Hamdan Bin Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai,
Chairman of Dubai Executive Council, and Chairman of the Higher Committee for
Development and Citizens Affairs, has launched the "Dubai Farms” programme, offering
a host of services and incentives aimed at supporting Emirati farmers who own
productive agricultural projects.

The "Dubai Farms” programme aligns with the objectives of the Dubai Social Agenda
33, launched by His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice
President, Prime Minister and Ruler of Dubai, with the aim of making Dubai the premier
city for living experiences, empowering its citizens, increasing their contribution to the
emirate’s economy, and ensuring their financial independence and social stability.

Sheikh Hamdan stressed the vital importance of local agriculture in Dubai, and the need
to develop and sustain it to reflect Sheikh Mohammed’s vision to establish Dubai as the
world’s best city to live and work - a key pillar of Dubai’s comprehensive development
plans that focus on building the capacity of strategic sectors.
