According to the latest GSS data, the non-oil economy, which reflects the performance of sectors outside petroleum production, grew by 6.8 percent, slightly lower than the growth recorded in the same period in 2024.

The agriculture sector was the standout performer, posting an 8.6 percent increase, up from 2.5 percent in Q3 2024. The crops sub-sector was the main driver of this growth.
