Turkey announces grain purchase prices for 2025
Turkey’s state grain board TMO has announced its 2025 grain procurement prices, setting the base purchase price for milling and durum wheat at 13,500 TL/tonne (~USD 420). With additional premiums, producers will receive up to 16,020 TL/tonne (~USD 500). The move aims to support domestic grain production against the backdrop of escalating production costs and market volatility.
The Turkish Grain Board (TMO) has officially unveiled the domestic procurement prices for the 2025 grain season, signaling strong institutional support for local farmers amid ongoing inflationary pressures in agriculture. According to the announcement, the purchase price has been set at 13,500 TL/tonne (~USD 420) for second-grade milling and durum wheat and 11,000 TL/tonne (~USD 345) for barley.
With the inclusion of supplementary payments from the Ministry of Agriculture and Forestry—comprising base support, planned production incentives, and certified seed bonuses—farmers will effectively receive 16,020 TL/tonne (~USD 500) for wheat and 13,520 TL/tonne (~USD 422) for barley. These levels represent a year-on-year increase of over 45% for wheat.
TMO stated that the 2025 wheat harvest began in localized regions in May and has reached approximately 2% nationwide. To facilitate orderly storage and procurement, the agency began accepting wheat and barley deliveries on a commitment basis starting May 12, from producers registered in the Farmer Registration System (ÇKS).
The 2025 campaign will be supported by over 600 procurement points across Turkey. The agency emphasized that the pricing decision was made in close alignment with market monitoring and in consideration of producer sustainability.
In addition to the announced prices, fuel and fertilizer subsidies will remain in effect. Farmers engaged in planned production schemes will receive additional support, and those using certified seeds will qualify for extra payments under the new model.
Product payments will be transferred within 30 days of delivery to farmers’ registered bank accounts. By raising domestic procurement prices, Turkey aims to stabilize local grain supply and sustain farmer engagement in grain cultivation, particularly as input costs and global trade uncertainties continue to reshape production strategies.
