‘Saba Sanabel’ flour boasting the highest protein content

The Sharjah Department of Agriculture and Livestock (SDAL) has announced that the wheat farm located in Mleiha yields “Saba Sanabel” flour boasting the highest protein content globally, exceeding 19 percent.

The success of Sharjah wheat is credited to the initiatives and supervision of H.H. Dr. Sheikh Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi, Supreme Council Member and Ruler of Sharjah, according to Dr. Engineer Khalifa Al Tunaiji, Chairman of the Department of Agriculture and Livestock.

“Saba Sanabel” is now considered the best type on the planet thanks to its exceptionally high protein content and lack of any fertilisers, pesticides, or other potentially dangerous compounds.

Al Tunaiji attributed the high percentage of Sharjah wheat “Saba Sanabel” produced at the Mleiha wheat farm to the organic farming system. This system helps improve the fertility and content of the soil, which in turn ensures that the wheat grains are of higher quality and type.

He also stressed the need to use desalinated water for irrigation, which is free of contaminants. This results in an increase in grain production and protein content because water speeds up the transfer of dry matter from stems and leaves to grains, a key component in plant development.

Since SDAL’s “Saba Sanabel” flour is grown using a chemical-free process and is fertilised only with natural manure, it has earned five quality and safety accreditation certifications.

Thus, Sharjah wheat is free of toxins and chemical components that could change its nature as a food ingredient or make it more productive. It meets the quality and safety criteria applicable in the UAE, which boosts customer trust and helps it compete in the markets. As a result, it is the first national product to get the “Made in the UAE” logo.
