In El Ghair, located in southeastern Algeria, date producers are facing a significant storage crisis. Cold storage facilities remain filled with last year's production despite the new harvest being only two months away. Due to a lack of buyers, farmers are forced to sell their stock at heavily discounted prices. This surplus has created financial instability for local agricultural workers. Consequently, producers are urgently calling on the Algerian government to provide economic assistance. The situation highlights a critical gap in the supply chain and market demand. Farmers remain hopeful that state intervention will prevent further losses.
