In a region known for its export of oil, this study explores how the Gulf states are also defined by the importation of food. Christian Henderson examines how the Gulf is reshaping the global food system, demonstrating how states such as the UAE and Saudi Arabia represent 'inverted farms' which have developed their own agribusiness sectors.
