Before Inma’s complete vision emerged as it stands today, numerous challenges arose, accompanied by continuous development and remarkable achievements over the years. This journey has refined Inma’s name in the agricultural field and strengthened its bonds with our customers and partners.
1982
Company Establishment
Our story began in 1982, during the early stages of Saudi Arabia’s agricultural renaissance, driven by a state-led strategy to establish specialized agricultural companies. The company’s main project is located in the Wadi Al-Dawasir region, covering an area of 10,000 hectares.
The company began cultivating a variety of crops, such as wheat and forage, with its primary mission focused on providing high-quality agricultural products. This mission is supported by advanced farming practices that leverage the latest technologies, aiming to achieve sustainable agriculture.

Overcoming Challenges
(Water)
Based on the company’s vision and mission at the time and planning for the future, the company began developing a master plan to reduce water consumption through modern programs, practices, and technologies to be integrated into the agricultural system at Inma.
In a rapidly changing world and as the company expanded, it began establishing new partnerships and business lines. These included economic collaborations, such as a contract with the Saudi Snacks Company (PepsiCo); research initiatives, such as research chairs at King Saud University; and international partnerships, such as with the Potato School in the Netherlands.

The Start of Technology Localization
(Subsurface Irrigation)
The company began localizing technology to reduce water consumption by introducing new irrigation systems and techniques, such as surface irrigation for various agricultural crops.
Building on its success and excellence in the local market, under the slogan “Inma’s Products Stand Out,” Inma began targeting international markets, including exporting potatoes to Russia.

Restructuring
In response to the evolving agricultural landscape and driven by a constant pursuit of excellence, the company recognized the need to explore available options and carefully balance the pros and cons. As a result, it aimed to enhance its financial performance, improve operations, and boost its competitive edge in the market. This led to the company’s expansion into agricultural projects in the Al-Jouf region.
A new chapter in Inma’s distinguished journey of technology localization and the introduction of new systems began with the addition of the mobile irrigation system, marking the start of another chapter of Inma’s excellence and leadership in utilizing modern technologies, along with the introduction of drone spraying technology.

Smart Agriculture
Achieving success is easy, but maintaining it and staying at the forefront of technological excellence requires continuous innovation. By employing advanced agricultural methods, cutting-edge systems, and creative solutions while preserving water and energy efficiency, Inma perfectly embodies smart agriculture, delivering sustainable and innovative growth.
To preserve its achievements and mark a pivotal milestone in its history, the company transitioned from a limited liability company to a closed joint-stock company after 40 years of its founding. This was followed by the launch of a dedicated corporate strategy aimed at achieving the company’s strategic vision and goals.
