He presented his detailed report on the problems experienced with the Minister of Commerce Ruhsar Pekcan
In the detailed report presented to the Minister, President Şahin underlined what the Ministry of Commerce abides to ensure the stability of domestic flour prices, to protect our consumers and to prevent speculation and said that regulation is temporary and will be terminated after price stability. Unfortunately, this practice continues the 60 percent decrease on the production of flour producers in the production of flour exports. He mentions that If this application is not terminated, the approach of July, which is the wheat harvest season, will be difficult for the farmers to sell wheat and supply and demand, as our industrialists will not be able to purchase wheat from our farmers.
President Şahin added that the export of flour based on imported wheat would cause the grievances of our farmers and conveyed that the export of domestic wheat flour as it was before was their greatest expectation and wish.
