Quick Glance: First Female Farmer in the UAE Cultivates Diverse Plants in the Desert
- Amna Khalifa Al Qemzi, the UAE’s pioneering female farmer, embarked on her journey many years ago by sending nine baskets filled with a variety of vegetables and fruits grown in her own garden to the late Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan, the first president and founding father of the UAE.
- Recognized as a trailblazer in organic agriculture, Al Qemzi was recently honored with the Abu Dhabi Award by President Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed for her efforts in promoting environmental sustainability and knowledge sharing within the community.
- Throughout her farming endeavors, the Abu Dhabi Awards recipient has cultivated an extensive array of crops, ranging from tomatoes and grapes to figs, watermelons, red chili peppers, and more. By planting seeds sourced from various countries in the UAE, she successfully nurtured plants not only during winter but also throughout the summer months.
- Amna Al Qemzi's story served as a model and a source of inspiration for many young farmers and the youth of the UAE. Regarded as a symbol of history, authenticity, generosity, and giving, she was seen as a role model for future generations.
