Argentine Wheat Exports Set to Re-Open Next Week
Following the suspension of the farmers strike Argentina have wasted no time in announcing that they will begin accepting declarations for export of wheat on April 7. The first exports will be allowed on April 21.
The wheat export registry has been closed several times since last year. More than 7 million metric tons of the 2007-08 wheat crop has been declared for export. In January the Agriculture Secretariat announced that an additional 2 million metric tons of wheat would be made available for export over the next five months, but the export office has remained closed.
