In an interview, Al-Kiribani revealed that he has grown new products that has hitherto been unknown to the Middle East region, such as red corn, orange watermelons and cotton, noting that he always strived to cultivate the most extraordinary of fruits and vegetables.

Moreover, he added that red corn was distinct for its crimson color and sweet taste, noting that the crop was indigenous to Central and South America. The agriculturist also said that he was able to grow American cotton, regarded as the most superior form of the downy substance.

He also announced that his farm has yielded more than 70 kinds of produce, as plans are underway to introduce these products to the market.
