Winged Meat Export Ban and Commercial Risks

Ministry of Trade The decision to halt the export of winged meat, announced by the foreign trade world, had a profound resonance. As İnovakademi, we do not deny the importance of food supply security, but we question how this decision fits with the principles of "sustainable trade".

Why is Export Not a "Open-Off" Mechanism?

Opening the door to a market in foreign trade, entering through that door and ultimately settling as a trusted supplier is the result of years of investment. As the Sustainable Trade Association emphasizes, our exporters have made these markets Scratching with his fingernails He won.

However, one morning's sudden stopping decisions put this effort at risk:

Confidence Index: International buyers code as "high risk" to supply from a country where the shipment was suddenly cut off. This undermines not only the poultry sector but the image of all Turkish export products.
Legally Dismissed: Exporters already have signed contracts and logistical commitments. Cuts, which would not be considered a force majeure, could leave our firms under heavy compensation burdens.
Competitor Strategies: Every shelf you unload is an opportunity presented on a gold platter for your opponents. In the global market, the gap is always quickly filled.

Price Edition or Cost Edition?

Our field observations and association reports, which date back years as İnovakademi, show that the basis of price increases in the domestic market is not the volume of exports but rather the volume of production processes. Raw Material, Energy and Logistics The increase in costs lies. Depriving the producer of foreign market revenue will weaken the raw material purchasing power and lead to a narrowing of production capacity in the medium term. This could further trigger prices due to lack of supply, rather than lowering them.

Solution:

We believe that prohibitions bring uncertainty, not solutions. Our solution suggestions include:

Quota Application: Instead of a complete cessation of exports, a quota system should be implemented to cover existing contracts.
Raw Material Support: Supporting the producer in raw material items such as feed and energy will balance domestic market prices by natural means.
Culture of Consultation: Decisions need to be implemented gradually, with sector representatives and strategists pre-planned.

Conclusion: The protection of the exporter is not just to protect the profits of a section, but to protect Turkey's competitiveness in global trade.
