The need to change the governance of the country's basic commodity market.
The head of the Agriculture Committee at the Chamber of Commerce of Iran in an interview with Tasnim News:
🔹 At a time when the country's warehouses were filled with corn and market prices rose to 39,000-40,000 tomans, small and medium importers lost the motivation to continue their activity; In the meantime, the government could have mitigated some of this problem by making real-based purchases.
🔹Recently, the idea of real-based procurement of a million tons of corn was proposed but did not materialize. Such purchases could have prevented the weakening of importers and disruptions in the animal feed supply chain. 🔹One proposal is to delegate the supply of basic goods to the private sector while maintaining the management and supervision of strategic reserves by the government; Importers will then be required to allocate 20-30% of their inventory to government-managed reserves.
