According to Press TV, in a letter issued on Monday, Maj said in a letter issued on Monday that he was given the Iranian Trade Promotion Organization (TPO) for two months from February 24th to various types of countries. I asked to stop the date.
The ministry said the decision was aimed at creating “balance and stability” in the domestic market.
Demand for the date will increase in Iran during the Holy Month of Ramadan, which will begin on March 2nd this year. Apple and orange are the staples of the festival that take place on Iran’s New Year’s holiday, starting in late March.
Maj issued a similar letter on February 17th, calling for a two-month ban on exports of potatoes, lentils and beans from the country.
The ban on the export of potatoes comes a month after Iran was forced to import crop shipments from nearby Turkey and Pakistan to control prices in the domestic market.
Authorities said at the time that they could not halt scheduled potato exports, claiming that such a decision would harm exporters and would lose market share in countries like Iraq.
Iran has been a major producer and exporter of agricultural products in recent years, in an effort by the government to offset the impact of foreign sanctions targeting the country’s oil exports.
