Turkey plans to continue limiting some wheat imports when its four-month ban on purchases ends this month, according to a document seen by Bloomberg.
After Oct. 15, the market will be only partially opened using a quota system, according to a letter from the Turkish Flour Industrialists’ Federation to millers. It indicated that the federation had received the directive from Turkish officials.
