Government secures 5 million tons of local wheat
Egypt has concluded its 2026 local wheat supply season, receiving more than 4.7 million tons of wheat, along with 150,000 tons of seed potatoes and 200,000 tons of "Deorum wheat" for pasta production. The Ministry of Agriculture has emphasized that the goal is to increase the quantities received annually by approximately 10 to 15%, in order to support food security and reduce reliance on imports. It is expected that next season's production will exceed 10.5 million tons, thanks to expanded cultivation of improved varieties and enhanced productivity. The purchase prices, which are higher than the global market and incentivize farmers, are considered a crucial factor in strengthening the strategic reserves and expanding local production.
