However, the importation of agricultural products and red meat is a problem rather than many cutting solutions, especially producers. The authorities' "be honest" statements do not change the gravity of imports of agricultural products.
 

"IMPORTS DO NOT PROVIDE SOLUTIONS"

Bayraktar said that the same situation would be experienced in the red meat, he said, "The producers should be avoided violently from the applications."
 
The Union of Agricultural Chambers of Turkey (TZOB) Chairman Şemsi Bayraktar said that due to the fight against inflation, the reduction of agricultural products in customs taxes would negatively affect producers. "While the harvest is still going on especially in wheat and arp, such a decision will adversely affect the domestic market," said Bayraktar. "Whether domestic wheat prices will fall inevitably. In this case, the producer will avoid production next season, domestic production will be affected in the negative "phrases used.
 

SAME CASE IN RED MEAT

 
Bayraktar noted that corn production increased by 81 percent in the last 10 years, "the most important reason for this increase is to keep the customs duty rate high. The reduction of customs duties in Egypt is not acceptable for producers. " Saying that the same situation will be experienced in red meat, Bayraktar said, "If import is done, nutrition should be limited to animals. When sufficient support was given, production was seen to increase when imports were not made. The producers must be avoided violently from the applications, "he said.
 
"Imports will not be allowed to shrink domestic production"
 
Food, Agriculture and Livestock Minister Faruk Celik, regarding the reduction of customs duties in the importation of slaughtered animals and carcass meat, "Our producers do not have to worry about our producers. Import applications that will cause domestic production to shrink will certainly not be allowed, "he said.
 
Food, Agriculture and Livestock Minister Faruk Celik said that the decision of the Council of Ministers regarding the reduction of customs taxes on imports of slaughtered animals and carcass meat from abroad entered into force the day before. "After this decision, it is seen that some speculative evaluations have been made to concern our producers and growers. No breeder needs to worry about our breeder. The importation of slaughter animals and carcass meat will be carried out under the authority and control of our Ministry as it was before the decision of the last Cabinet. Import practices that will cause domestic production to shrink will certainly not be allowed, "he said.
