Iran plans to import wheat
(MENAFN) Based on a report by Press TV, many local wheat growers were unhappy with buying prices offered by the government this year, choosing to sell their crop to intermediaries instead.
Hojjati said: "Last year, despite the severe drought, we were able to buy about one million ton of wheat more than the year before, but this year in some provinces farmers did not even sell us equivalent of their irrigated crop,"
Much of Iran"s wheat cultivation depends on non-irrigated farming as the country is expanding dryland agriculture amid a lingering drought which is forcing it to use its water resources more economically.
The bulk of the crop depends on seasonal precipitation, as irrigated wheat covers only one-third of the total wheat area.
Hojjati also said, Most of the rain-fed wheat crop is concentrated in the northwest, but farmers in the region as well as in the country"s west sold very little new crop to the government this year.
