L’Egypte approvisionnée en blé pour au moins 6 mois

L’Egypte approvisionnée en blé pour au moins 6 mois | Égypte-actualités | Scoop.it

(Agence Ecofin) - Dans un contexte de tensions sociales et de difficultés économiques, l’Egypte est autosuffisante en blé jusqu’en juin 2013 et devrait réduire d’environ 1 million de tonnes (Mt) ses importations lors de l’année fiscale 2012/13 (juin à juin) a affirmé le vice-président de General Authority for Supply Commodities (GASC), Nomani Nomani. En ajoutant la récolte locale à venir, l’approvisionnement porterait sur 11 mois. Un record, le pays assurant depuis 2011 un montant de stocks entre 6 et 7 mois.

Une réduction des importations consécutive à une récolte locale qui pourrait atteindre 4 Mt. Ainsi les importations ne s’élèveraient plus qu’à 3,8 Mt contre 4,8 Mt en 2011/12. Une bonne nouvelle pour le pays qui a subi de plein fouet la hausse du prix du blé en 2012.

Les cours mondiaux du blé ont progressé de 18,2% en 2012, la plus forte hausse des matières premières, suite à la sécheresse qui a réduit la production notamment Etats-Unis, en Russie et en Ukraine. La dépréciation de la livre égyptienne a aussi contribué à alourdir la facture des biens alimentaires.

En 2011/12, le GASC avait acheté 7,93 Mt de blé, dont 5,330 Mt sur le marché international et 2,6 Mt sur le marché local. Le même montant devrait être acquis sur l’année fiscale 2012/13 mais avec un approvisionnement local plus important en raison des prix incitatifs offerts aux agriculteurs et à l’introduction par le ministère de l’Agriculture de nouvelles semences de haute qualité. La GASC a déjà acheté 6,84 Mt de blé, dont 3,14 Mt sur le marché international et 3,7 Mt localement. Toutefois, le GASC se réserve l’option de lancer des appels d’offres internationaux pour du blé si les cours devenaient intéressants.

L’Egypte a récolté 8,69 Mt de blé à l'été 2012, en hausse de 4% par rapport aux 8,37 Mt en 2011, selon l'Organisation des Nations unies pour l'alimentation et l'agriculture.

The Bureau of Statistics released figures on Sunday stating that the consumer price inflation rose up to 6.6 percent on an annual basis and 1.8 percent on a monthly basis.

It reported that the consumer price inflation in the cities rose to 6.3 percent on an annual basis in January 2013 from 4.7 percent in the previous month, and on a monthly basis record inflation of 1.7 percent compared with 0.2 percent in December.

The annual inflation rate for consumer prices in the countryside rose up to 6.9 percent and two percent monthly.

Meanwhile, the government had advised the citizens “not to over-eat,” according to a local newspaper.

It is worth mentioning that prices hikes were one of the reasons that instigated an uprising in 2011.
