Turkey imposed a 130% import tariff of some grain imports including wheat and corn, according to a presidential decision published on Tuesday in the Official Gazette. The import duty comes after some European Union countries announced bans on grain imports from Ukraine last week. According to a previous regulation, there was no import tax on wheat, barley, rye, oat, corn and sorghum until April 30.
