Syrian Wheat Surplus and Sustainability

Syria achieved self-sufficiency in wheat production for the first time in years during the 2026 season, with a total delivery of approximately 2.7 million tons, surpassing the annual needs of 2.55 million tons by a surplus of 150,000 tons. This significant improvement is attributed to heavy rains that led to increased production, which registered a record jump compared to the 2025 season, which did not exceed 934,000 tons. Officials explained that the cultivated area reached 1.4 million hectares, divided between irrigated and rainfed cultivation, with full provision of seeds, fertilizers, and pesticides to farmers. Coordination was also made with the energy sector to supply the necessary fuel for irrigation. The news confirms that this achievement supports the country's move towards sustainable self-sufficiency, emphasizing the need to continue improving crop quality and increasing productivity to face future climate fluctuations.
