Morocco and Egypt could become the first importers of Wheat on the international scale

One of the worst droughts is expected to make North Africa the world's largest buyer of grain.
The low rainfall until mid-April has clouded Morocco's grain harvest prospects this year, with harvests in neighbouring countries such as Egypt also suffering. Declining local supply could boost region wheat purchases by 7.4% to a record of 29.7 million tonnes in the year starting in July.
