Ministry of Trade and Regional Integration (MoTRI) approved the draft commodity agreement which was prepared by Ethiopian Commodity Exchange (ECX) to modernize wheat sale transaction. ECX drafted the agreement after analyzing samples that were collected from major wheat producing areas in Oromia, Amhara, SNNPR, and Sidama Regional States. The agreement is expected to play its part in ensuring the shipment of quality wheat to other countries.

The Ministry of Trade and Regional Integration revealed that preparations were underway to export high-quality wheat to international markets. It discussed with exporters on the export of the cereal and noted that the quality and standard of export wheat was non-negotiable. The Ministry also affirmed that exports of wheat would commence after domestic consumption was met.
