Morocco’s plans to import wheat are expected to face pressure from rising global oil prices, but government support measures remain in place to protect the market, a Hespress AR source at the National Professional Office for Cereals and Legumes said Wednesday.

The source tells Hespress AR that despite neighboring countries, including Algeria, issuing international tenders for 50,000 tons of soft wheat amid Middle East tensions and soaring oil costs, Morocco will maintain its current import strategy.

“The government support program is active and will intervene if wheat prices exceed 270 dirhams per kilogram to ensure price stability and safeguard national purchasing power,” the source said.

Morocco’s wheat imports continue from various international suppliers, though logistical challenges remain. Previous climate disturbances in northern Morocco and southern Spain have delayed shipments, and storms along the Atlantic coast have increased vessel waiting costs, affecting importers.

Geopolitical tensions, including the conflict in Iran, have not directly disrupted supply but have contributed to higher international wheat prices, which recently surpassed the 270-dirham threshold.

The source emphasized that global wheat supplies remain available despite rising prices, and the government’s compensation program will ensure Morocco’s import plans are not disrupted.
