The federal government has set a target to generate US$109M in output value from wheat cultivation in the 2025/2026 dry season
The 2022 ban was imposed due to a smaller harvest, rising inflation, and food security concerns.
The Ministry’s wheat programme provides farmers not only with certified seeds but also with technical guidance, irrigation advice, and on-field monitoring throughout the growing season.
The decision comes as part of the ministry’s plan to stabilise prices and ensure the availability of high-quality olive oil amid a sharp decline in local production this season.
The company will be jointly owned by Samcrete Egypt, a leading domestic construction and industrial firm, and Feerum S.A., a Polish manufacturer specializing in grain storage and drying systems
