"Iran Agribusiness Report Q1 2016" now available at Fast Market Research

The landmark Iranian nuclear agreement of July 2015 paves the way for the return to growth of the Iranian economy and for a strong uptick in foreign investment. Consumer demand, including for agricultural products, will be a strong beneficiary. The increased supply of inputs and potential investment in capacity and infrastructure will improve the outlook for agricultural production growth in the country. However, such a development will depend on the country doing some key modernisation investment, particularly in irrigation, as Iran relies heavily on the vagaries of the weather. Therefore, production expansion will be slower than consumption growth in the coming years and Iran will remain a large and growing importer of key commodities.

Key Forecasts

Wheat production growth to 2018/19: 5.0% to 15.1mn tonnes. Wheat yields are expected to improve owing to the modernisation of technology, with the use of hardier grains variants, greater access to relevant inputs and a larger area of the country benefiting from new irrigation facilities.
Sugar consumption growth to 2019: 27.6% to 3.0mn tonnes. Sugar demand will be mainly driven by population growth, as well as the improved macroeconomic conditions following the lifting of sanctions.
Poultry production growth to 2018/19: 13.1% to 927,800 tonnes. Growth will be driven by domestic demand and the effects of increased investment.
