By Yomna Yasser On Sep 20, 2015

Egypt’s strategic wheat reserves are enough to last until early March, the country’s reappointed supply minister Khaled Hanafy said Saturday.

The new reserve figure was released after Egypt’s state-owned General Authority for Supply Commodities (GASC) bought 230,000 tonnes of French, Ukrainian and Russian wheat on Friday in a tender.
