Turkey Lifts Some Ag Export Bans

Turkey recently lifted export bans on butter and olive oil about five months after imposing restrictions (see 2203170012), the USDA Foreign Agricultural Service said in a July 20 report. The country replaced its butter export ban with a 7,000 metric ton monthly quota for July, August and September; it removed the ban on olive oil but didn't place a quota on it. The country hasn’t yet notified the changes to the World Trade Organization, USDA said.
