DeirEzzor24 exclusive report:
The percentage of wheat cultivation for the winter crop in the third sector in the eastern countryside of Deir Ezzor did not exceed 20%, according to a local reporter of DeirEzzor24.
According to the reporter, this decline in the area of land cultivated with wheat is the result of the reluctance of farmers and tenants to cultivate due to the high costs of production, the rise in the rent for cultivating one dunum to 200 thousand liras, the rise in plowing and seed prices, the loss of fertilizer in the agricultural bank, and its rise in the black market.
Wheat is one of the most important agricultural crops in Deir Ezzor, and is considered one of the most important supports for the farmers of Deir Ezzor.
