Moldova extends grain import limits to protect farmers.
Dec 29, 2023

Moldova’s Commission for Emergency Situations (CSE) said it has extended restrictions on the import of wheat, maize and sunflower seeds by three months in a bid to maintain sustainable prices on the domestic market.
 
Moldova limited grain imports from neighbouring Ukraine to protect local farmers in October, when it introduced a special licence.
 
Only entities engaged in animal production along with those active in the manufacturing of livestock feed, grain mill products, bread, fresh pastry goods and cakes, as well as oils and fats will be eligible for import licences, the CSE decided on Wednesday according to a document available on the Moldovan government’s website.
 
Import licences are issued by the agriculture ministry.
 
The licensing measure does not apply to seeds of wheat, maize and sunflower intended for sowing.
