Limani: Kosovo produces wheat only 50 percent for population needs

Musa Limani, former dean of the Economic Faculty and adviser to former Prime Minister Ramush Haradinaj, said Kosovo has never met the needs of the wheat population and for that reason is mandatory import. “As I know, Kosovo produces about 40 to 50% wheat for the needs of Kosovo's population.

“As I know, Kosovo produces about 40 to 50% wheat for the needs of Kosovo's population. Although there are now some statements that are the minister for agriculture and the association of farmers who do not comply with it, however Kosovo has never met its needs with wheat, its productivity. Because many of the surfaces of arable land remain barren and normally we import wheat from other countries and are dependent on other articles”, he told Online Economy.

Limani says even with the country's Constitution it is meant to have state reserves, which can now be used at the price of many products.

The “is envisioned as any other country and in the Kosovo Constitution that the state should have reservations. But until recently, they have not secured state reserves. More recently, they have begun receiving or amassing state reserves. As far as they are, I have no access to it because they are not public and they shouldn't be public, because it represents a strategic factor”.

Whatever it is, with the Constitutions I know there are state reserves, which the state uses for special cases, now for example, as is the case of price hikes. The state can balance the offer and demand through the discharge of state reserves, especially those food, oil and so on the market, and lower the actual price that is really high, due to the raising of” prices.
