Aflou to produce over 877,000 quintals of potatoes
The Agricultural Interests Department in the Wilaya of Aflou anticipates that the region will produce approximately 877,100 quintals of seasonal potatoes for the 2025-2026 agricultural season. This production will span over an area of more than 3,132 hectares distributed across 12 municipalities. The harvest campaign will continue until the end of November, following the governor’s directives to support farmers and facilitate the marketing of the product. This includes regulating the market by enabling customs authorities to store and refrigerate, especially at the “Friedgomedit” complex with a capacity of 10,000 cubic meters. The municipality of Kiltet Sidi Saad is the largest in terms of cultivated area (1,511 hectares) with an expected yield of nearly 423,080 quintals. Investors are focusing on producing seed potatoes and providing seasonal employment opportunities, backed by government support and improved marketing organization, alongside the promotion of direct trade to ensure abundance of the product and price stability.
