Why is there such a high rate of importation of agricultural products to the middle east? the region lacks the money to pay farmers to grow food for themselves the region has a serious lack of cultivable land they spend all their resources exporting oil that no labor is available for farming it's cheaper for them to buy food than to grow it themselves

the region has a serious lack of cultivable land

Explanation:

There is high importation of agricultural products to the middle east due to the uncultivable nature of their land.

The middle east has got an arid environment, this means that the middle east lacks sufficient rainfall to practice agriculture.

The mechanised agriculture practiced there does not produce enough food supplies for the population making them export more agricultural products.
