Romania developed a mechanism to restrict grain imports from Ukraine and Moldova

The Romanian Ministry of Agriculture has developed a mechanism to restrict grain imports from Ukraine and Moldova.

The Ministry's press service reported this.

Local companies will have to apply to the Ministry for permits to import wheat, sunflower seeds, rapeseed, and corn from Ukraine.

"We are protecting Romanian production and the work of Romanian farmers," said Romanian Agriculture Minister Florin-Ionuț Barbu.

It will be recalled that in September, Romanian Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu visited Kyiv to finalise the agreement on further exports of Ukrainian grain to Romania.
