This year, 5.1 percent more, a total of 7.9 million tons of cereals grown, compared to last year, on a 0.4 percent less area – the Central Statistical Office (KSH) reported on Thursday.

The average yield surpassed the 2015 yield. The average yield of wheat was only higher in 1988 than this year. This year’s yield exceeded the average of the past five years by nearly 20 percent.
According to the Central Statistical Office, the higher yields of this year can be explained by the favorable weather. (MTI)
