Question

Norah lives with her grandfather in a small village. She is busy teaching her, and her grandfather is busy taking care of his farm that includes 50 palm trees. Grandfather got sick one day and could no longer take care of the farm as before. Norah wanted to help her grandfather and take care of the farm for him, but she didn't know how to do it. Norah noticed the discoloration of some palm trees and did not know why or how to deal with the problem. She tried to communicate with the palm cultivation experts but to no avail. Norah did not know about the palm seasons, such as the pollination season and other seasons. She also does not know where to order palm care materials.

Norah thought and asked herself: Are there other people in Saudi Arabia, a country of 30 million palm trees, who need help like me? Norah applied to the Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture to find a solution for her and for people who are suffering like her. The Ministry of Environment, Water and Agriculture received Norah’s request and took it into consideration because the ministry aims to increase the quality of its services by 30% during the first quarter of 2022.
