I did not realize Iraq produced that much wheat. But makes sense.

Since 1 usd=1,460 iqd and the import goods become every expensive. No wonder they start producing wheat  so they don't need to depend on import wheat that costs more pricey. Who knows, Not only wheat, but they also start produce something else, too.

They produce oil and gas and they are mainly the source of income for he government. Even iraq produce their agricultural goods ( wheat ), the quality of the products may not be good compared to us agricultural products. I think from my own opinion, actually iraq still prefer import goods than local goods made in iraq. Because 1 usd=1460 iqd and import good costs more pricey for ordinary lower class iraqi citizens , therefore iraq has no choice and iraq ( like it or not ) has to start producing agricultural goods made in iraq. Unless iraq can increase the iqd from 1460 to 1 iqd that makes the rate 1:1 ( in my own opinion ) and import good costs cheap, therefore, iraq will start importing agricultural goods again from the us. Of course, this is just my opinion.

He pointed out that "the end of this month, we will be able to determine the quantities marketed in total for this year," stressing that "despite the decrease in production this year, the region has succeeded in achieving self-sufficiency in the crop, since large areas of it depend on irrigation and not rain ."

Shafaq News/ On Wednesday, the Parliamentary Committee on Agriculture, Water and Marshes accused the Ministry of Finance and other ministries of reviewing wheat revenues due to its policy and non-disbursement of farmers' dues.

 

Committee Chairman Salam Al-Shammari said in a statement received by Shafaq News Agency, "The dues of farmers in all governorates of Iraq, including the 2014 dues, have not been paid so far, although they are included in the ruling expenses, similar to the salaries of employees."

 

He added, "We are in the middle of the eighth month of this year, and only a few of their dues have been paid," noting that "the farmers' segment represents 60% of the people."

 

Al-Shammari explained, "It was noted that there was a clear decline in the revenues of strategic crops, as we worked hard to support the local product and reach self-sufficiency with the arms of farmers, associations, parliament and the relevant sectoral ministries," adding that "the food basket and self-sufficiency of strategic crops for the years 2019-2020 were secured."

 

He pointed out that "due to the mismanagement of the Ministry of Finance and other sectoral ministries by not paying the dues, the revenues of the wheat crop and strategic crops fell to 3 million tons, after it was more than 5 and a half million, and Iraq announced the export of more than 800 tons of barley and also announced its readiness to export the wheat crop."

 

Al-Shammari added, "This year, due to the lack of government support and the policy of the Ministry of Finance, the revenues of the wheat crop fell to 3 million tons, and the Ministry of Commerce announced the import of the remainder, and this would open a door to corruption."

 

Al-Shammari blamed the government, the Ministry of Finance and the relevant ministries, "the reason for what the farmer suffers from, and this is a clear targeting that cannot be tolerated, and fiscal policy must be returned in this regard."
