He said the wheat crop, for example, in dunam up to half a ton obtained best and others may not reach that figure low.
He pointed out that Iraq is grown more than 9 million acres However the ISD this figure is the country 's need of grain due to poor productivity per dunum, either in some countries regional neighboring countries or the world , with up productivity dunum to 1 ton Aoncef ton of wheat.
He said the narrator many reasons behind this difference is that including the lack ofadequate Alambazl to drain irrigation water, along with the scarcity of water for irrigation private lands that are irrigated from the Euphrates River, referring to the tendency ofmany of peasants and farmers there to dig artesian wells to compensate for the shortage of irrigation water amounts, knowing that these wells need to be integrated irrigation system of pumps and systems , sprinkler and distillation associated with them.
the land reform process stalled for nearly three decades because of the former regime 'spolicies, where it was specialized international companies implementing land reclamation operations. the
