The condition of self-sufficiency in wheat Fars news

According to the Fars News Agency Economic Group, the vast country of Iran, with 11 of the world’s 13 climates, is one of the few countries in the world that has a four-season climate, these important facilities alone can be one of the country’s greatest advantages in agricultural development. Be.‌

However, this advantage is more or less considered in post-revolutionary governments, so that compared to 1977, when the total harvest of agricultural products did not reach 20 million tons, with a growing trend, today to more than 120 million tons in The year has come, however, the development of mechanization, development of processing industry and storage of agricultural products and production of better seeds, increasing scientific information of farmers and expanding science in the field of meteorology, soil science, etc., the country’s population has almost tripled and global enemies. Constantly threatening the country with hybrid wars have raised expectations of self-sufficiency and food independence.

The most important step for the development of agriculture in Iran is to have its economic justification. This great goal, in turn, includes various sub-categories and examples, from guaranteed government purchases at reasonable prices, to the expansion of agricultural insurance umbrellas and the elimination of conventional gambling brokers. Imports, etc., each of which will have an effective role and contribution in motivating and strengthening the economic base of farmers.

After the Supreme Leader’s New Year speech and his complaints about dependencies in the agricultural sector, the Parliamentary Integration Commission took an important action announced by the government, which promised to increase the guaranteed purchase price of wheat to 11,500 Tomans, if This late announcement will not have much effect on the harvest of this strategic crop this year, but it will undoubtedly, by the grace of God, cause a significant leap in planting this crop next year, especially the Russia-Ukraine war, which totals 24%. From the wheat used to supply the world, the import of this crop in the future has faced many obstacles. If the decrease in wheat production in Ukraine and the increase in its world price not only threatens the possibility of famine in 35 mainly African countries, but also neighboring countries such as Turkey, Afghanistan and Iraq have opened a special account for the smuggling of flour from Iran. According to the Minister of Jihad for Agriculture, it must be admitted that the Iranian table is a table for 150 million people.

In addition, with the elimination of the preferred currency in the future and the fact that livestock inputs will increase in price, the distribution of 40 kg of flour at a price of 34,000 Tomans per bag will not only smugglers, but also a significant part of Iranian farmers to use government flour for use in The diet of the animals tempts.

Today, the current situation in the field of grain is not unlike the time of Prophet Yusuf (AS), a time when Prophet Yusuf saved not only the people of the Egyptian Empire and its neighbors from famine by interpreting the dream of an infidel king and offering two 7-year development plans. Rather, thanks to the strategic management of wheat, he achieved to a large extent the social justice that was the goal of all the prophets (AS) and also saved the people from the ugly religion of several thousand years of idolatry, and this was while in the beginning of their work, The only allies he had were the experienced forces that he had trained during his imprisonment, otherwise the managers and agents would not have been selected, nor would they have been united!

Now the question is when we hear that a country like China is shaping the biggest hoard in history in the field of grain and the major grain producers in the world are at war and Iran in the not too distant past at least three times It has tasted the bitter taste of famine, shouldn’t this worrying news cause as much concern and responsibility for the senior and high-ranking managers of the system as the dream of an infidel king ?!

The news of the increase in the guaranteed purchase price of wheat has sweetened farmers, but this happiness can only motivate a change in the pattern of cultivation and, consequently, a jump in wheat production, so that the government can increase the rent of combine harvesters and transport wheat to silos. Wheat to control the deliberate mixing of wheat with debris before delivering wheat to silos and to reassure farmers that the government is committed to providing the seeds needed by farmers.

The issue of providing quality and affordable seeds is a very vital issue and it is no less important than increasing the guaranteed purchase price of wheat.

It is said that more than 100,000 wheat cultivars have been identified worldwide, of which about 17,000 cultivars are native to Iran and are stored in the Gene Bank of Iran.

It is interesting to know that Karaj, as a province with a half percent share in the area, holds the record for wheat production per unit area. One of the committed farmers in Alborz province harvests more than 13 tons of wheat per hectare for several consecutive years, while if If the average harvest of irrigated wheat in the country reaches half of this amount, then we will definitely reach wheat self-sufficiency. And in the grain seeds sector, to which we are not affiliated, there is no logical relationship between the achievements of knowledge-based centers and the agricultural sector, and each of these two do their own thing. They allocate barley and government knowledge-based science centers also produce new seeds and monopolize the gene bank!

As a result, one of the historical missions of the Ministry of Jihad for Agriculture is to link the production sector to knowledge-based centers and use the existing scientific findings in order to generate wealth and the next step is the development of knowledge-based centers in agriculture and animal husbandry.
