what happened
Reuters reports that Turkey's state grain agency TMO plans to release 5.5 million tons of grain for sale in November. Sales will stay at the prices set when the harvest began, the agency said in a statement issued late on Friday.
Since sales opened on September 1, buyers have taken roughly 1.5 million tons, covering raw-material needs of relevant industries across the country. Barley continues to go to livestock producers and feed mills, and lower-grade wheat is also available to the feed sector.
Because logistics through the Black Sea are difficult amid the ongoing war in the region, the agency has also offered 1 million tons of feed wheat to relevant industries.
why it matters
Domestic sales at fixed prices mainly affect the local feed base and livestock sector. Shipping risks in the Black Sea remain the factor that could change import needs and grain flows in the region.
