At the end of the 2017/2018 harvest-threshing campaign, national cereal production reached 6.05 million tons, compared to 3.47 million tons recorded during the 2015/2016 campaign. The needs are far from being met in terms of common wheat, even in favorable years, which leads to costly imports in foreign currency for the country. Algeria plans to be self-sufficient in durum wheat by 2020. In 2018, Algeria imported 8 million tons of wheat (hard and soft) with a bill of 1.92 billion dollars, including 7.9 million tons of soft wheat with a value of 1.48 billion dollars .
The capacity of milling for the wheat is more 15 million tons per year and the capacity of wheat storage is more than 31 Million tons (2018).
