Authors : Rahal Fatma . Tahri Kenza .

Abstract

This study is intended to explain the relationship between wheat food gap and its determinants in Algeria from 1980 to 2018 ,by using the ARDL model, this study found that the Algerian's wheat agriculture is hostage to climatic conditions and far from registering and achieving acceptable levels of self-sufficiency, to overcome this shortfall, Algeria resorts to import from abroad, where common wheat comes first in agricultural imports as the basis for daily consumption of the Algerian individual. The country imports wheat from France, Canada, Germany, the United States of America, Spain and Mexico and recently from Russian after worsening ties between Algeria and Paris.
