By decision of the government of the country, each one importer purchased a shipment of wheat should purchase the three parties of local corn at the price of 8 baht per kilogram. In addition, imports of feed wheat will require separate permission.
Manufacturers of animal feed in Thailand recently favored wheat because of its relative cheapness. This was caused by the weakening of world wheat prices and the current zero duty on imports.
In January-September Thailand imported 2.77 million tons of wheat, while for the full year 2015 to 3.9 million tons.
On the domestic Thai market, local corn with a moisture content of 14.5% is quoted at a price of 6.7-6.9 household per kg, while the soft wheat in Chicago for the price of 5.32 baht per kg.
