The International Trade Administration Commission of South Africa (ITAC) has defended its decision to keep the Dollar-Based Reference Price (DBRP) for wheat unchanged at $279 (about R4,558) per ton, arguing that current farm-gate prices are sufficient to cover producers’ costs while continuing to shield the industry from unfairly subsidised imports.
