Belarus has announced an extension of its licensing requirements for the export of various grain crops, including wheat, rye, barley, and others, for an additional six months. This measure, overseen by the Ministry of Antimonopoly Regulation and Trade, applies to exports within and outside the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU), aiming to prioritize the domestic market's needs. This extension continues the country's practice of regulating grain exports through licensing, which began in late September 2022 and has been in place throughout 2023.
