Together, <strong>the <\/strong><strong>two countries account for nearly a third of the world\u2019s wheat supply<\/strong>, and some 60-80% of our grain imports at any given time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Targeting a better harvest: <\/strong>Prime Minister Mostafa Madbouly has given orders to increase the number of wheat collection points and slash red tape with a view to making it easier for small farmers to grow wheat, El Moselhy said in the interview. The government also brought back to life the decades-old <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/af1b5628-23bb-4b70-8569-973225e9fcf7\">Toshka agricultural project<\/a> in December, which El Moselhy said is expected to save about USD 1 bn in the country\u2019s wheat budget by 2025.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How much of the wheat we need can we feasibly grow ourselves?<\/strong> Egypt aims to achieve 60-62% self-sufficiency in the grain this season, Agriculture Minister El Sayed El Quseir told <a href=\"https:\/\/www.asharqbusiness.com\/article\/33165\">Bloomberg Asharq<\/a> last month, adding that the country has cultivated 3.6 mn acres with wheat, which should produce 9.5 to 10 mn tons.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Homegrown wheat isn\u2019t totally insulated from global price hikes: <\/strong>Even before war broke out, the government had agreed to pay <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/15d45665-349c-485e-b1cb-1fc861ae8204\">13% more for local wheat<\/a> this season than it did in 2021, after a global supply squeeze saw prices hit a <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/01393c38-caed-41c5-a0dd-1d4724b14015\">ten-year high<\/a> and the price of inputs such as fertilizer rose. The price hikes were expected to take an additional <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/30bc9b32-0682-476e-b93c-cd733864721d\">EGP 12 bn<\/a> out of the state budget this fiscal year \u2014 again, before conflict hit the Black Sea and prices spiked yet further. Chicago wheat futures closed up 5.4% yesterday.<\/p>\n<p><strong>On the imports front, we\u2019re still pushing to diversify supply.<\/strong> Egypt has extended its imported wheat moisture level specifications for an additional year, as the government looks to diversify its supply sources amid the Russia-Ukraine crisis, the Trade Ministry said in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/mift.media\/posts\/325932942911320\">statement<\/a>. The decision, which will be in force until April 2023, caps moisture content in wheat shipments at 13.5%, 0.5 percentage points higher than the normal 13% limit. The government is also still <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/4d62e3f0-9d66-4bf5-8447-110e1540903c\">studying hedging wheat<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Could the international community do more to help? <\/strong>As fuel, food, and fertilizer prices rise on the back of Russia\u2019s war, food security professors Michael J.
