Favourable weather conditions led to an above-average wheat harvest. Wheat import requirements are forecast to be below average for the 2026/27 marketing year. Annual food inflation decreased in July 2026.
The winter cereal harvest took place from late May to June 2026. Initial dry weather delayed planting, but rainfall from December 2025 onwards improved soil moisture and crop conditions. Further details on the harvest and food security are available, including information on specific producing areas such as Beja, Jendouba, Le Kef, and Siliana.
