Aiming to boost

PRODUCTION
F

or many years Algeria has been one of the world's top
wheat importers, but new measures are being taken by
the country to boost grain production in the near term.
Speaking at the International Grains Council (IGC)
Conference June 9 in London, England, Mohamed Belabdi,
JHQHUDO GLUHFWRU RI WKH 2I¿FH RI $OJHULHQ ,QWHUSURIHVVLRQDO
des Cereales (OAIC), said Algeria is aiming to boost grain
production to an average of 6.7 million tonnes in the 20152019 period.
He said production between 2009 and 2012 averaged 5.1
million tonnes.
The North African country has implemented several measures including boosting storage, providing incentives for
farmers to apply more fertilizers, rebates on crop insurance

"Grains are the weak point of agriculture in Algeria,"
Belabdi said. "Since we started to apply this new organization
in order to boost grain production, there has been a constant
change in grain output apart from last year where conditions

production has been better than the previous year."
According to the IGC, in 2014-15 the country's grain output
fell to 3.3 million tonnes due to drought, but it is expected
to rebound to 4.6 million tonnes this year, which is still below average. The IGC projects Algeria will import 6.9 million tonnes of wheat in 2015-16, down slightly from 7 million
tonnes a year ago.

plans to raise total irrigated area to 2 million hectares from the
current 900,000 hectares. The share of irrigation for cereals is
expected to reach 600,000 hectares, up from 60,000 currently.
He said much of the irrigation equipment is being supplied by
the OAIC.
He said OAIC programs are also making a difference in
other important ways. In line with the farming renewal policy
initiated in 2008, the OAIC's work is focused on promoting
grain farming through technical supervision of grain crops

showing its value as they enable harvesting to take place in a
more timely manner, thus reducing crop losses," he said.
Increasing storage capacity is also on the OAIC's agenda,
as its new storage infrastructure program aims to increase
