Tridge summary

In Kazakhstan, the ban on the export of onions will be replaced by a quota. Previously, farmers asked to open exports on the grounds that they could not sell the entire stock on the domestic market, and part of the onions would rot in warehouses. The Ministry of Agriculture of the Republic of Kazakhstan published two draft orders. One will suspend the current ban on the export of onions, the other will introduce quantitative restrictions on exports for a period until April 28, 2023. As specified, quantitative restrictions (quotas) on the export of onion from the territory of the Republic of Kazakhstan to third countries and to the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union are planned in the amount of 20 thousand tons. The document is posted on the Open NLA website. Public discussion of the order will last until March 29. It is noted that the distribution of quotas for the export of onions will be carried out automatically when issuing phytosanitary certificates in the unified automated management system for the sectors of the agro-industrial complex "e-Agriculture".
