Iraqi Fertilizer Firm to Help Farmers with New Reforms


In response to a cabinet decision to remove subsidies on fertilizers and promote advanced irrigation techniques, a major Iraqi fertilizer manufacturer has said it will assist farmers during the transition to the new system. While supporting this government initiative to increase the yield of agricultural land, reduce the dependence on river water, and counteract potential corruption stemming from the resale of fertilizers by farmers, AAA Holding Group (AHG) said the announcement has raised concerns among small-scale farmers who might find it challenging to afford they fertilizers they need for their crops. Recognising this challenge and the vital role that fertilizers play in crop production, the company has come forward with an offer to support Iraq's agricultural projects.

Amet Selman, CEO of AAA Holding Group, said: "We understand the significant role fertilizers play in crop yield and the potential financial strain the recent changes might place on our hard-working farmers. To support our nation's farmers and the broader goal of agricultural sustainability, we're offering deferred payment options and exploring other alternatives for fertilizer provisions." He added that this initiative by AAA Holding Group aims to ensure that no farmer is left behind in the transition phase and that the agricultural output remains robust. "With collaborations between the private sector and the government, Iraq's agriculture can see transformative growth, benefiting not just the farming community but the nation as a whole," he said, adding: "We believe in a future where Iraq's agricultural sector is resilient, sustainable, and prosperous. Our support is just one step towards achieving that vision."
