Harvesting wheat at Qaa Sharaa farm launched

The Ministry of Agriculture and Irrigation has launched the harvest of wheat at the Qaa Sharaa Farm, which is owned by the General Organisation for Propagating Enhanced Seeds.

At the inauguration, which was attended by the member of the Shura Council Abdo Al-Alawi, the Undersecretary of the Ministry of Agriculture stressed the importance of expanding grain cultivation in a way that contributes to enhancing food security, especially in light of the existing challenges due to the aggression and blockade.

The Director of the General Organisation for Seed Propagation, Engineer Abdullah Al-Wadie, indicated that the Foundation worked to expand production during the current season by cultivating its areas and contracting with farmers with an area of 250 hectares.

It is expected that the production of the Sharaa Farm will soon reach 200 tons, greatly contributing to Yemen’s self-sufficiency in food production.
