SeedMatchGroup

Agricultural Seed Suppliers in Iraq

Iraqi commercial farms, cooperatives and government tenders across the central and southern plains and the Kurdistan Region source wheat, barley, hybrid maize, vegetable F1 and forage seed from European, Turkish, Indian and US breeders. SeedMatchGroup matches buyers privately with screened independent producers and coordinates import via Umm Qasr and Erbil.

Direct answer

Can you support government seed tenders?

Yes — we regularly prepare tender documentation aligned to Iraqi Ministry of Agriculture requirements through our supplier network. Turkey/Erbil is typically the fastest corridor for the north; Umm Qasr for the south and centre.

Categories we source

Bread and durum wheat, barley, hybrid maize, sunflower, forage grasses and legumes, and heat-tolerant vegetable F1 hybrids (tomato, cucumber, watermelon, onion, pepper) for greenhouse and open-field production.

Sourcing workflow

Submit crop, variety traits and volumes. We return a private shortlist of independent breeders with indicative pricing as quoted by suppliers. Trial packs available before scaling; supplier identities remain confidential.

Documentation and logistics

Phytosanitary certificates, ISTA analysis and certificate of origin prepared for Iraqi import procedures. Freight via Umm Qasr for the south and via Turkey/Erbil for the Kurdistan Region.

Financing

USD Letters of Credit are the dominant structure for Iraqi seed imports. With your consent, briefs are shared with independent third-party financing partners. SeedMatchGroup is not a lender. See /seed-financing.
