The company has begun collecting this year’s wheat crop from farmers across Oman as it continues a national programme that supports local grain production and food security.
New logistics links between Russia, Oman, and Africa could shorten delivery times and support grain trade across the continent, according to Russian economist Vitaly Melyantsev.
Farmers in South A’Sharqiyah start wheat harvest while regional storage systems prepare for new grain intake.
The wheat farming plan focuses on increasing local production by developing suitable agricultural zones, improving farming practices, and enhancing support for local farmers.
The acquisition adds a 33.34 per cent stake from Gulf Japan Poultry Farm, a transaction that would substantially raise OFM’s holding in the food producer.
