The Customs Service under the Government of Tajikistan reports that in January of this year, flour imports decreased by 24.7%, while wheat imports fell by 18% compared to the same period last year.
According to the source, over 2,700 tons of flour were imported into the country during the specified period, totaling 865 thousand dollars, which is 24.7% less compared to the same period in 2022.
In January of this year, 66,200 tons of wheat were brought into the country, amounting to 20.6 million dollars.
Kazakhstan is considered the main supplier of flour and wheat to the Tajik market.
The Avesta agency, citing relevant departments of the republic, claims that currently about 90% of Tajikistan’s domestic demand for flour is met through local production (processing).
Flour is considered a staple food product in Tajikistan. Recently, residents have complained about high prices for flour in the country.
