In the past three years, Qatar has developed its dairy industry from scratch, achieving self-sufficiency and beginning to export dairy products to other Arab nations in 2020. The country achieves 110% of its dairy supply for the local market through the large dairy company Baladna, and has become self-sufficient in vegetable production for six to seven months of the year.
