Turkey bypasses Spain in purchasing Ukrainian corn
Turkey has become the main buyer of Ukrainian corn.
This was reported by Dmytro Solomchuk, MP and member of the Committee on Agrarian and Land Policy, on Facebook.
He noted that as of November 2024, Turkey was the country that overtook Spain, the permanent leader, in purchasing Ukrainian grain.
“In terms of physical weight, the figures are significant – 2.5 million tons of exports in November, of which 620 thousand tons were bought by Turkey,” the MP said.
He noted that in November, a total of $2.3 billion worth of agricultural products were exported, of which only $512 million was corn.
According to UkrAgroConsult, this result was made possible by the introduction on October 10 of a quota for the import of 1 million tons of corn to Turkey with a 5% customs duty until the end of December 2024.
