Grain stock surpasses 10.7 million quintals
The grain harvest season in Tunisia is approaching its end, with progress reaching 98%. More than 10.75 million quintals of grains have been collected out of an estimated total production of over 20 million quintals, according to the Ministry of Agriculture. These quantities will help reduce import costs and improve the food trade balance, with Tunisia’s wheat needs expected to be fully met until January 2027. The price per ton of hard wheat is $350. Additionally, the quantities of soft wheat collected have increased to 1.1 million quintals compared to 600,000 quintals last season, enhancing the availability of national supplies, which are consumed at approximately 30 million quintals annually. This comes after years of drought that affected production. Projections indicate that the 2026/2025 season will yield an output exceeding 20 million quintals, according to updates from the Ministry of Agriculture, after satisfactory levels have been recorded since the 2025/2024 season.
