Qassim University’s applied research safeguards food security and livelihoods
Collaboration helps researchers share agricultural solutions with the Middle East and the world
The Qassim region is known as the "breadbasket" of Saudi Arabia, and its survival depends on agriculture. Crops and livestock production drive the region's economy and provide livelihoods and food security for millions of people in the Kingdom and the Middle East.
Researchers at Qassim University say applied scientific research is essential to maintaining the health and productivity of the region's agricultural sector. Research within the College of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine seeks to find solutions to diseases that threaten local crops and livestock, while academics push to share their knowledge with others in the Middle East and globally.
Ahmed Ali, a professor of veterinary medicine at the university, says camels and dates drive the economy of the Qassim region. "Camels are important as a source of meat and are also part of the cultural heritage of the Middle East," he adds, specializing in camel fertility.
There are about 1.6 million single-humped camels in the Arabian Peninsula, more than half of which are in Saudi Arabia, according to the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.
However, camels suffer from diseases that threaten their fertility, and therefore the livelihoods of herders, Ali says. One example is chlamydia, a bacterial infection that causes reproductive issues in camels. The Qassim University Veterinary Hospital, the largest in the country, receives between 100 and 150 camels a day, and a third of the hospital's camel cases are affected by this bacterial infection.
Ali says: "Surgical treatment is limited, so we are looking for a vaccine to prevent the disease from occurring." In collaboration with researchers in Egypt, Oman and Qatar, Qassim University is working to isolate the chlamydia microbe and develop a vaccine.
In another project, Ali and colleagues linked male camel infertility to heavy metal toxicity. Cadmium, a heavy metal, is often a byproduct of oil extraction, and the researchers found traces of it in infertile male camels. Ali, who has been working at Qassim University for 15 years, says: "Working on camel infertility is like a chain; once we solve one issue in the chain, we move on to the next."
Professor Fahad Al-Mandarij, a chemist at the College of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, is trying to solve another issue: How to make the most of Saudi Arabia's abundance of dates.
More than 8 million date palms are scattered across the Qassim region. In the first quarter of 2021, Saudi Arabia exported 142,000 tons of dates, according to the Saudi Press Agency.
Almendraj says: "My project looks at using palm to create new products for the market that are useful for people."
For example, date vinegar is currently prohibitively expensive, and Al Mandraj is working to develop a way to mass-produce it to enable it to be sold as a health food. Palm-derived cellulose can be used to produce bioethanol, and filters made from palm-derived nanoparticles can remove heavy metals from water. To realize these products, Elmendrej is collaborating with colleagues at the university, as well as in Tunisia and Egypt.
Meanwhile, Ayman Omar, a plant pathologist, is working to develop microbes that enhance the growth and productivity of greenhouse crops such as cucumbers and tomatoes. Omar and his colleagues are isolating growth-promoting bacteria and fungi from the local environment in order to develop products for farmers.
He says: "These microbes save money, are safe for the environment" and mean farmers won't have to rely on mineral fertilizers. Like Ali and Elmendrej, Omar is also collaborating with researchers in other countries to advance his research, particularly in India and Egypt.
He hopes to have the products ready for farmers next year, along with two scientific papers detailing their findings.
While Qassim University researchers are actively working to publish scientific papers, the main goal is to help farmers at home and abroad, to ensure that their crops and animals remain healthy.
College of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine organizes several scientific lectures "remotely" to activate World Food Day
In conjunction with World Food Day, and under the patronage of His Excellency Prof. Abdulrahman bin Hamad Al-Dawood, President of the University, the University, represented by the Community Service Unit at the College of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine, held a number of remote scientific lectures on Wednesday, 4/3/1442 A.H., in cooperation with the college's departments.
The lectures offered by the university on this occasion varied and included: A lecture entitled "Food Safety in the Application of the HASP Program", presented by Dr. Shawkat Fathy, a faculty member at the college, in which he talked about the origin of the HASP food safety system in the United States of America, then crossed the Atlantic Ocean to Europe and the rest of the world, where it was described as an integrated control system that ensures the achievement of food safety and risk-free food by analyzing the potential risks in food during its preparation and processing stages and identifying critical control points and working to monitor and control them to avoid the occurrence of these risks.
The lecture also pointed out that many governments and civil institutions have started to apply this system in order to produce safe food for the consumer, and in the Kingdom, the Ministry of Municipal and Rural Affairs paid attention to the HASP system and issued technical bulletins and guides in preparation for its application, and the Saudi Food and Drug Authority crowned the ministry's endeavors by issuing a circular on 24/3/2019 obligating food factories and water bottling to apply this system because of its great impact on food safety.
After that, a lecture entitled "Functional Poultry Foods and Human Health" was held, presented by Dr. Tariq Obaid, a faculty member at the college, during which he emphasized the increased interest in the role of functional foods in improving human health in recent times, as eggs are one of the most important and most widespread functional foods, such as eggs rich in omega-3, eggs rich in organic selenium, and eggs rich in vitamins.3, eggs rich in organic selenium, and eggs rich in vitamins, in addition to the existence of eggs rich in more than one of the previous elements, namely Columbus eggs, and poultry meat rich in omega-3, poultry meat rich in vitamin E, and poultry meat rich in selenium.
The lecture revealed that these products have a vital role in protecting the human body from many diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, autoimmune diseases and some inflammatory diseases, in addition to protecting people from cancer and Alzheimer's disease, so they are recommended for the elderly and children.
The college held a lecture entitled "Together Towards a Balanced Food to Maintain Your Health", presented by Dr. Raghad Al-Hamid, a faculty member at the college, during which she explained the essential role of balanced food in the health of the body and its freedom from diseases. Balanced food is defined as food that provides the human body with various essential nutrients of proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, mineral elements and water, which the body needs to perform its functions properly, build cells, tissues and organs in the body and prevent diseases, and raise awareness in society about balanced food that must contain foods
The lecture warned that the caloric components of food should be appropriate for the body according to the person's age, gender and activity to achieve and maintain a healthy weight, as each type of food contains one or more of these nutrients in varying amounts and each type has specific functions in the human body.
Finally, a lecture titled "Organic Agriculture in Achieving Sustainable Agricultural Development: Dr. Adel Hassan, a faculty member at the college, explained that organic farming is an agricultural pattern that preserves and develops natural resources by improving the fertility and properties of the soil, improving biodiversity and biological cycles, preserving the environment from pollution, and this characteristic makes it play an important role in providing the food needs of current generations and preserving the rights of future generations in achieving sustainable development.
The lecture touched on the data and figures obtained from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and practical research centers interested in organic agriculture and organic production management in various countries of the world and the importance of organic agriculture and its role in achieving sustainable agricultural development, pointing to the need to conduct more studies in the field of organic production by introducing new agricultural systems based on the non-use of chemicals and rationalizing the use of traditional agricultural inputs in modern and sustainable scientific methods.
It is noteworthy that October 16 of each year coincides with the founding day of the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) in 1945. On this day, FAO participates in events in more than 150 countries around the world, promoting global awareness and action to eradicate hunger and the need to ensure food security and a nutritious diet for all.

University Palm introduces Janadriyah visitors to its products and their nutritional and economic importance
The University's "Palm" tells about its benefits and products to visitors to the special exhibition in the upper floor of the Qassim Region Heritage Exhibition at the National Heritage and Culture Festival "Janadriyah 33", which was designed in a way that mimics the heritage of the region and its walls are covered with informational panels about this blessed tree, its by-products and types of dates, so that the visitor to the pavilion leaves with a huge amount of valuable information about the palm tree and its various byproducts, in order to leave the pavilion loaded with a huge amount of valuable information about the palm tree and its various by-products.
When visitors to the festival come to the region's heritage headquarters, their eyes are drawn to the attractive design of the Palm Exhibition and their minds think that the palm is only for date production, but when the visitor begins his steps between the palm frond models, surrounded by the four sides of the exhibition, which was built on an area of more than 70 square meters, various products that benefit from dates such as "Maamoul and chocolate", and other manufacturing industries. He receives a huge amount of historical information about the origin of the date palm, the areas of its spread in the world, then the stages of its growth, agricultural practices, methods of multiplying date palms, and the mechanism of protecting them from fungal diseases, so that the guest comes out with a wealth of information, sensing the status of this blessed tree and its nutritional, environmental and economic importance.
The College of Agriculture and Veterinary Medicine at the university, which oversees the exhibition, was keen to familiarize visitors with the benefits of dates, which are not only limited to eating, but also include by-products and manufacturing industries:
Providing local products instead of importing from abroad, especially fodder, diversifying the materials manufactured from palm trees and craft industries based on them, developing and reviving heritage and exploiting labor, while providing additional income for the farmer, in addition to the environmental importance of investing in palm products, which is represented in the low percentage of pollution due to the lack of burning these products and the low use of pesticides, reducing the incidence of diseases as a result of leaving by-products and increasing the environmental awareness of farmers.
The exhibition also presents ways to benefit from the palm tree and all its parts and trunks in the furniture industry, the wood industry and roof trusses, in addition to the palm fiber in the manufacture of ropes, mattresses, pedals and artificial soil industry, as well as the alternative fiber of bamboo and used as biofuel, while the leaves of palm trees "fronds" are used in the manufacture of ceilings, wall cladding, the manufacture of traditional and parquet furniture, wood panels, paper paste, animal feed and organic fertilizer. The leaves of palm trees "fronds" are used in the manufacture of roofing, wall binding, traditional furniture, parquet, wood panels, paper pulp, animal feed, organic fertilizer, baskets, mats, thermal insulation materials, and other manufacturing products in various industries.
From the fruits of the date palm, several products are extracted, including date juice, molasses, vinegar, yeast and jam making, and dates are also involved in the animal feed industry, in addition to the manufacture of compost from palm waste, where palm waste is chopped to be used to feed the soil and create a suitable agricultural environment for agriculture because it retains water and helps improve the properties and fertility of the soil.
"Saudi Arabia is the second largest date palm producer with 15% of production"
The sessions addressed modern methods of resistance to the "red" weevil and access to safe food products
Studies at the University's International Date Palm Conference"The Kingdom is the second largest producer of dates with 15% of production"
Media and Communication Center:
The results of a study presented by Dr. Abdelkader Boufarsawi, a professor at the Houari Boumediene University of Science and Technology, at the Second International Date Palm Conference currently underway at the university, proved that the Islamic world in Africa and Asia is the main producer of dates globally, noting that the number of date-producing countries in the region is 13 countries that produce 95% of the total global date production.
"Egypt ranks first in date production with 18% of global production, while Saudi Arabia ranks second with 15%, Iran ranks third with 14%, the UAE ranks fourth with 14%, followed by Algeria in fifth place with 9%, and Iraq in sixth place with 8% of global date production," said Boufarsawi during his presentation of the study he presented to the conference entitled "Comprehensive Talk on Dates." The UAE ranks fourth with 141 TP3T of global date production, followed by Algeria in fifth place with 91 TP3T, and Iraq in sixth place with 81 TP3T of world date production.
The study pointed out the diversity of date varieties, which exceeds 1400 varieties, which began to be cultivated in the Euphrates Basin more than 6000 years ago, and man used them as food in ancient and modern times, and used their leaves in some traditional industries, and their trunks to build villages, in addition to being an integrated food, due to its rich composition of iron and potassium, and containing a large amount of vitamins, minerals and carbohydrates that make it a fruit with high energy, and the date is a favorite food in the Prophet's Sunnah.
During the first day of the Second International Date Palm Conference, many scientific sessions were discussed throughout the day in the morning and evening periods, with six sessions.
The first session was chaired by Dr. Yousef bin Abdullah Al-Salim, and its main focus revolved around the economics and marketing of dates, through the presentation of a research paper presented by Dr. Hans van der Beek entitled "Cooperation between Saudi Arabia and the Netherlands in improving date production and quality." The paper was entitled "Cooperation between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Netherlands in improving date production and quality.
Dr. Beck presented ways to help companies and farmers manage water and reduce its consumption by 70%. He also touched on ways of cooperation between the two countries in developing ways to treat pests that threaten palm trees, most notably the "palm weevil." Dr. Beck's presentation also included how to improve irrigation techniques and increase internal marketing efficiency.
After that, Mr. Saud Al-Fada, Director General of the Agricultural Department at the Saleh Al-Rajhi Endowments Administration, presented a working paper on how to qualify projects and farms to obtain specialized international agricultural certificates, most notably the "Global GAP" certificate, pointing out that the most important objectives of obtaining the certificate are to ensure access to health-safe food products and give a clear indication that the farm has achieved its mission in supporting food security locally and globally, as well as protecting the environment from the negative effects of agricultural production, the certificate aims to instill confidence in consumers, and is a passport for agricultural products outside the country's borders to many countries of the world.
Then, Dr. Ejaz Ashraf presented a paper titled The level of knowledge of farmers on the treatment of date production and marketing in Pakistan, followed by Dr. Shamim Ahmed, who presented a research paper titled Marketing of date-based food products as healthy products, during which he talked about many ways in which the food industries produced from dates, such as juices and others, can be utilized, and at the end of the session, the floor was opened for discussion among the attendees on the topics raised in the session and answering queries related to them.
