Abstract

Since the oil embargo of 1973, the Gulf states have emerged as an overwhelming financial power. However, apart from Iraq, the spiral in oil revenue has had little effect in promoting the development of agriculture. Historically, interest in agricultural development has been invariably linked to agricultural potential. Thus, if potential was very limited, interest in development would be minimal. This article takes an opposite view, suggesting that agricultural development may be important even under harsh ecological conditions, and that the limiting factor is the lack of skilled manpower needed to cope with the management of complex enterprise systems.
