The official opening of the first black Diamond truffle farm in Saudi Arabia took place on 27th of November in the presence of Finnish Ambassador in Saudi Arabia, Mr Antti Kinnunen, Administration Director of Muncipality of Juva and Dr Salem Shamekh, Director of juva truffle Center. The Mayor and Agriculture Director of the region were also present for the ceremony. The opening ceremony was posted on Twitter, which reached more than 60000 followers in one day. After the completion of the opening ceremony, a collaboration agreement was signed between JTC and Saudian Arabia SPL company in the presence of Finnish- Ambassador.
The First Truffle Farm Established In Saudi Arabia by Juva Truffle Center (JTC)
Juva Truffle Centre’s mission to develop methods for truffle production to benefit the Finnish rural areas’ economy and activities, is well known. JTC also carries out scientific research for practical and commercial purposes and offers technical assistance for rural communities and companies. Juva Truffle Centre also performs its activities in the Baltic countries, the Arabic Gulf region, and North Africa since its establishment in 2007.

On the 8th of November 2018, the first truffle farm was established in Saudi Arabia by JTC in the Al-Qaseem region, aiming to make the cultivation of European truffles a sustainable ecological and agricultural concern for the region and helping with the restoration of the areas’ degraded arid lands.

The focus of the project is to cultivate the famous ‘black diamond truffle’ using JTC’s state-of-the-art scientific methodology and nurturing it in Saudi Arabia via our local Saudi partners. The black diamond truffles are a high-nutrient, commercially viable and environment-friendly truffles in the world. Through our partnership with a local Saudi company, we seek to transfer the know-how and improve the rural areas’ economy.

This truffle farm in Saudi Arabia has completed one year now with exceptionally good results. All the planted European oak seedlings inoculated with truffles have passed safely the last harsh summer season where the temperature nearly reached 50°C. Good truffle farm management was performed during the last year right from the day of establishing the truffle farm by Dr. Salem Shamekh, Director of JTC. Dr. Shamekh followed the growth of the oak seedlings on a weekly basis and gave instructions to overcome any raised problems.

Establishing more Truffle orchards in Saudi Arabia based on JTC’s experiences will significantly increase the number of greener areas within Saudi Arabia.

Now it’s the time to celebrate this significant milestone (since the first year is one of the most critical stages in the truffle cultivation). Juva Truffle Centre and our Saudi Partner, plan to have an official opening ceremony on 27th of November 2019.

It was a great day today at Juva Truffle Centre. We had visitors from Varkaus to gain knowledge about truffles and were welcomed by the Director Dr. Salem Shamekh. We had coffee and karjalanpiirakka with Truffle butter for snacks while Madame Tarja delivered a lecture about JTC and truffles.
The Mother Journalist of Truffle Research and Cultivation in Finland, Madame Elina Hatakka, was received today at Juva by Dr. Salem Shamekh Director of Juva Truffle Centre along with The Mayor and the Chairperson of the Juva board. Madame Elina has promoted the Finnish Truffle research through her article about Dr. Salem producing Truffle mycelia in vitro and was also the first journalist to write about truffles (article dated April 27, 2005). The story of Finnish Truffle started with her article and has now flourished as a great interest amongst researchers and commoners alike. During her visit to the Juva Truffle Centre she had a word with the research students Sandesh and Wahiba, and the Manager of the centre, Madame Tarja Halme. She was also interviewed by the Journalist of Juvan Lehti, a local newspaper of Juva.
