Deputy agriculture minister: Ukraine not planning to ban grain exports so far.

By bne IntelliNews November 1, 2012
Ukraine is not planning to impose a ban on grain exports now, First Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food Ivan Bisiuk told. According to him, to date the Ministry does not observe the critical situation with availability of milling wheat on the domestic market, and therefore the issue of the ban is not active. To remind you, last week Ukrainian Agricultural Policy and Food Minister Mykola Prysiazhniuk told Reuters that Ukraine would introduce a ban on wheat exports from November 15 this year, fearing that very quick and large-scale grain export abroad will lead to deficit inside the country and growth of bread prices.
