The two countries together supply more than 80% of our imported wheat in peacetime.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t panic: The local harvest kicks off on Friday \u2014 and the government has roughly doubled its purchase budget from last year. <\/strong>With global markets in disarray, the Madbouly government has shifted its wheat procurement focus to local sources. The government will spend around EGP 36 bn to purchase 6 mn tons of local wheat this year, the Finance Ministry <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/MOF.Egypt\/posts\/349210877236282\">confirmed<\/a> yesterday. That tallies with<a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.news\/egypt\/en\/news\/story\/29183830-0b02-47ca-9b6f-7227de89b93e\">our math<\/a>: Farmers will receive EGP 865-885 per ardeb of wheat they sell to the state, and at 150 kg each, there are 6.66 ardebs in a metric ton. This would be a bit more than double what the government spent on local wheat last season, when it bought 3.5 mn tons \u2014 or 23.3 mn ardebs \u2014 at a top price of EGP 725 per ardeb.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FinMin <\/strong><strong>has made EGP 1.1 b<\/strong><strong>n available for downpayments to wheat farmers this season<\/strong>, according to a cabinet <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/EgyptianCabinet\/posts\/373566828147077\">statement<\/a>. The General Authority for Supply Commodities (GASC) and the Agricultural Bank of Egypt now have access to the funds to start making purchases.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Recently announced incentives could help the government meet supply goals:<\/strong> The carrots (and sticks) include price hikes for local wheat, minimum selling quotas, and bans on selling to third parties without a license. Those who sell 90% or more of their wheat to the government will also receive subsidized fertilizers for summer planting.<\/p>\n<hr class=\"grey-line\">\n<p><strong>Reserves of other at-risk commodities are in better shape: <\/strong>We have enough sugar to last 5.6 months, nearly six months\u2019 worth of oil and rice, and 7.8 months of poultry reserves, according to the cabinet statement.
