One of the major challenges of the standoff came when the four blockading countries, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Egypt, stopped exporting fresh produce to Qatar.
That led to a push towards self-reliance on food.
Al Jazeera’s Laura Burdon-Manley went to the Baladna farm in northern Qatar.

viva qatar
u guys are an inspiration to other Muslim countries
Was this suppose to hurt Qatar or help them?
Joseph Ybarra blockade was supposed to hurt qatar economically. But saudis underestimated Qatar. A very small country draws big influence.
Fury j big in fluency. Don’t make me laugh
I guess they didn’t influence the Arab spring with AlJazeera. I guess they don’t hold more property in Britain than the Queen herself. I guess they didn’t outlive the blockaid.
Proud to reside in this country.!
Abid Hussain Don’t the desert heat get to you over there?
Abid Hussain
Qatar is not a country.its just a gas station.
Shafia Kamal in which angle u see the Qatar is not a country…If Qatar is not a country then why 4 villen are block this reasion…
Saudi is the main slave of usa & other frendly country of usa in middle east is apointed as the khadim of saudi for preserve the intrest of usa
Yeah Until you Gased Out!!
and until you country men get bathroom in your country.
lamo i think they have huge huge huge gas store.
Even if they gas out,they still have lots and lots of investment,that will be enough to sustain them.They have the largest natural gas reserves,i don’t think its gonna run out any sooner.
binhilabi true
Latin america is on your side
God bless qatar and somalia.
500,000 Views …Qatar is our number one enemies financiers don’t be fooled Bro. .
Alpha581 ..Somalia used to feed Qatar and UAE only 50 years ago before the oil. Somalia is blessed in many ways the civil war made what it is today but soon will rise again
Qatar is the worst. They finance terrorists in my country.. In sha Allah Qatar will go astray soon.
Qatar doesn’t friend terrorist xoolo.. that is the Saudis and Emiratis.
Somalia will never rise, the only solution is to have Somaliland, Jubaland and Puntland as independent nations, the rest be divided between Kenya and Ethiopia.
Clown prince mBS is to break relationships.
Binu Jasim all the gulf rulers are clowns competing each other at funding sectarian terrorist group.
*Aljewzerraaa blowing their own trumpet*
India and Qatar stand against Saudi Arabia… 🇮🇳🇶🇦❤️
Subhasis Das Indeed brother! Iran too! Jai Hind!
Qatar Funds Terrorism Too dipshit.
Subhasis Das , they are against each other but not like what Indians think. they are still brothers
Saudi Arabia permits Indians to work there! 😂😂😂
More than 80% of the educated and qualified Indians are unemployed and they depend Arab and foreign countries for their livelihood (statistics proves it). Indians depend on foreign countries and they blame the one whom they are depending. Pity on you guys
India and its full nuclear arsenal stands by Qatar and Iran. If they do anything to escalate our nuclear and conventional weapons will wipe you out except Makka madina, rest we will bomb you back to stone age.Even U.S will be sitting duck. P.S – Dont forget Russia
Looks like Saudi’s and UAE business are the loser’s.
A A no they are not they have more power and more money
الجزائر عربية due to the gov blockade Saudi and UAE suppliers went from supplying 80% to 0%. That’s considered a loss to those specific business. And Qater hasn’t given into the demands of the regional powers.
A A not really it just means everything that use to go to Qatar is going somewhere that doesn’t support terrorism
@That one last time I check Saudi Arabia and uae are the biggest supporter of terrorism.
@scorpioninpink I think last time you checked you checked aljazera
Perfect!
Good for Qatar….its not about war….its about building business.
we r not israel sir..don’t worry
Many many super big milk at islam contary 2030 foods and drinks all the islam contary alhamdulillah
Cool
Why was Qatar being blocked ?
Random this is not the place for an unbiased answer almost every one here is brainwashed by aljazera propoganda
sultan Alotaibi You sound very brainwashed yourself
Antonio Gallagher says the guy who gets his news from aljazera 😂😂
because they refused to be Saudi colony
Random Shifting alliances.
If there is going to be a Iran vs. Saudi Arabia/Israeli war (backed by the US), the Saudi’s will have to remove Qatar as an independent source of news (Al Jazeera) for the world.
Also to seize assets (foreign reserves), and resources (oilfields).
The same happened in the lead up to WW2, when the Nazis annexed Bohemia in 1938 (Czech Republic).
They got gold, weapons, and natural resources which they used for the next campaign…
I Love Qatar
Cows from europe and US, technology from Ireland, hay and dry food for cows from Brazil, plastic for milk bottles from china and they call it “self sustaining”
Ara J lol right?!?
Where’s the hydroponics?
Where are the vertical farms?
Where are the solar panels?
Where is the permaculture???
Ara J ..it’s called business buying from others and developing for yourselves!
yeah, they should create their own cows….
It’s just propaganda to show that they are flourishing despite the blockade. Al Jazeera keeps uploading these videos once every few weeks
Nothing sustainable about the dairy industry, especially in the middle of a desert. Great point. I applaud Qatar’s efforts, hopefully they can encourage people’s eating habits to adjust and create even longer lasting self-reliance and true sustainability.
Well done qatar.
another good propaganda of qatar. This channel never bring any negative news about this country .
They own it
MBS is the symbol of worst man…bt blind followers of mbs always try to skip the autocratic, illiterate activity of mbs…
Digital Era is that coming from a Saudi. If not please don’t talk about something you know nothing about
sultan Alotaibi I m not a blind supporter of MBS like u…. Why u think Saudi is the guardian of muslim nation… Their ideology is satisfaction of Israel and USA…. hei Mr why ur MBS open the surface blockade over Israel…It is according to u Ohabi ideology
Digital Era really? And you heard that from Al Jazeera?
sultan Alotaibi no no Mr I m not blind suplorter of any approach why I give my statement only on the basis of al Jazeera my nation have our own media and I am student of political science I have minimum sence before criticizing others…
Digital Era I am not trying to fight.
but I just want to make it clear that most Saudis support MBS. When i say support him I don’t mean we support every thing he does, but in general we support him. And I am sure he will be one of the best kings in Saudi arabia. I think it you really want to know about a country you should visit it and I am sure you will be welcomed is Saudi Arabia. If not just ask a Saudi how he feels towards hi country and government . A huge indicator is see how many Saudis are immigranting to other countries. Not alot I bet
If Qatar used their money to start a strong branded Algal Biofuel Company, I’d be willing to invest some stock in it.
Money can buy everything… Wao.. 😁
Haha ..well done
Let me say Mashallah well done my brothers
Excellent Qatar 🖒🖒
Screw the saudis,,,I stand with quater
Venezuela could learn from this
Well doing keep up Qatar 🇶🇦 🇵🇰
ذيضض
Try a blockade by the US like how Venezuela has which puts económic, comercial and financial blockade. Whay does thst mean? It means thst even when they have money to import food and medicines they can’t. Recently Euroclear froze 2 billion dolars that were going to be used for imports. The blockade started by Obama in 2014 secretly.
How is a blockade started secretly if it the information must be quickly provided to banks, financial firms and transport companies for it to be effective?
Looks like Pro-Trump SAUDI and UAE business are the big losers.
Resourceful culture… excellent.
All Arabic country spread the terrorism. Also Iran
PINTU KUMAR hey stupid learn english first before talking!your english is as bad as a handicapped
I recommend you to build a toilet first before giving comments 🙂
“Chor chor mausera bhai”
Well done Qatar. From a South African.
Awesome, keep it up Qatar… while Israhell murders Palestinians to steal Arab land the rest of the Arab Countries keep sanctioning each other.
Good for Qatar self-reliance is the best way to go
Can these Gulf guys run anything for themselves? Every CEO in every gulf state is a white person 😐
Those Qatar owners must of worked really hard in their lives lol. Let’s get the Europeans to come in and fix everything cause we didn’t expect to not feed ourselves ever and our Arab brothers to blockade us.
Say no to Bullying
Somalia and Qatar we stand to fight with AUE and KSA
Hey, if i remember correctly then it was our India who sold about 60,000 cows to qatar.
Qatar is terrorist.
China always support Qatar
Why white people everywhere in Arabian peninsula?
Dead Man Walking this is our planet white black or brown does not matter
Blockade makes you stronger 🇶🇦✌
Self sufficient handphone note

We Somalis respect the Qataris determination make it on their own. We Somalis have problems with UAE because of our strong ties with Qatar and they trying to blackmail us in ordet to cut ties with them, not gonna happen NEVER. Qatar and Turkey have special place in our Somali heart. May Allah keep them successful and determent.

Muslim country taking help from non-muslim country, but they could seek help from bangladesh, malaysia or any other muslim country.
All the best for Qatar…. love from Bangladesh
Qatar will be exporting milk now belive it if u want then sell it make a profit label Milk from the desert
I love Qatar & like king Tamim
I was worried for reporter when cow came out robot would have replaced her from cow and may have started milking her..
It is easy to import cows but difficult to sustain. it’s a bleeding mission and will dry out as time passes. Those cows are not built for this type of habitat they have lived freely and in cold weather.
Instead of building life on Mars or Moon, let’s build sustainable life in the desert, on the seas, on the mountains, in the poles and under the ground.
I love that cow in purple shirt!
How wonderful !!
Necessity is the mother of invention .
Respect !!!
Well that certainly backfired lol
The pinnacle of factory farming.
What goes around comes around, that’s what Qatar gets for supporting islamic terrorism around the world that has killed thousands of innocents people, and interfering in other nations affairs. May Saudi Arabia invade Qatar to end this islamo-fascist state.
Our people our technology 🇳🇱 we’re the best

Saudi Arabia selfish country economy embargo realy Qatar is richest country in the world’s they money they import where ever they want from any country anywhere anytime saudi Arabia u lose
The blockade is the best thing to happen to Qatar. Now they are more self-sufficient and doesn’t need the help of its neighbors.
