Algeria: Grain and Feed Update

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

According to the Ministry of Agriculture’s crop assessment, Algeria’s MY2016/2017 grain production reached 3.3 MMT compared to 4.0 MMT the previous year. Once again, the results are directly attributable to drought conditions in the production areas of Algeria. As in previous years when drought has so hampered grain production, Algeria will likely import grain to compensate for the shortfall in domestic production.
