Govt prohibits export of deoiled rice bran until November
The Indian government has prohibited the export of deoiled rice bran until November, a Directorate General of Foreign Trade notification said on Friday.
“Export of de-oiled rice bran under ITC HS code 2306 and under any other HS code is prohibited until November 30, 2013,” the DGFT said in a notification.
The development came after more than a week, when the Centre prohibited the export of non-basmati white rice.
India is a leading exporter of deoiled rice bran, which is used in the cattle feed industry.
