Kasserine harvest delayed by rains
The start of the wheat harvest season in the Ksar Ouled Abderrahmane region has been delayed due to rains, which increased the moisture levels in the crops. This necessitates favorable weather conditions and a reduction in humidity to no more than 14 percent to ensure good product quality and proper storage. Additionally, the recent rainfall has slowed down barley harvesting and decreased the previously expected production, which was estimated at 800,000 quintals, now reduced to around 500,000 quintals. This decline is due to drought, weak seed quality, and a shortage of fertilizers. Grain prices have remained unchanged, with the price of hard wheat set at 140 dinars per quintal.
