In this regard, Additional Secretary (Exports) of the Ministry of Commerce Hafizur Rahman told BSS that the government has announced a ban on soybean meal exports to prevent any increase in the prices of poultry, fish and cattle feed in the country.

"We don't want to see crisis in poultry and fish food and cow feed in the country due to soybean meal exports, " he added.

  He further said that if soybean meal exports continue, dairy and poultry food production would be hampered and prices of dairy and poultry products would go up.

"No Soybean meal export letters of credit (LCs) will be accepted from today but LCs that were opened till yesterday could be exported till October 20," he said.

Soybean meals are mainly produced from soybean seeds and this Soybean meal is used as poultry, fish and cattle feed. Soymeal produced in Bangladesh is mainly exported to India and Nepal.
