T\u00fcrkiye<\/a>\u2019s steel product exports rose 2.9 percent year-on-year in volume to 1.2 million tons and 4.4 percent in value to $827.3 million in July, according to data from the Turkish Steel Producers Association (T\u00c7\u00dcD<\/a>).<\/p>\n

In the January-July period, steel exports<\/a> increased 2.4 percent from a year earlier to 9 million tons, while export revenues rose 1.6 percent to $6.1 billion.<\/p>\n

Steel imports fell 19.7 percent year-on-year in volume to 1.5 million tons and 17.6 percent in value to $1.1 billion in July.<\/p>\n

During the first seven months of the year, imports declined 3 percent in volume to 10.7 million tons and 4.9 percent in value to $7.4 billion compared with the same period of last year.<\/p>\n

The ratio of exports to imports rose to 82.1 percent in the January-July period from 76.9 percent a year earlier.<\/p>\n

T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s crude steel production increased 7 percent year-on-year to 3.4 million tons in July. In the first seven months of the year, crude steel output rose 7.9 percent to 23.2 million tons.<\/p>\n

T\u00c7\u00dcD Secretary-General Veysel Yayan said an 85 percent increase in steel exports to South America, which reached 762,000 tons, had a positive impact on overall steel product exports.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll these developments do not yet fully reflect the negative consequences of the quota system, which is estimated to cause a contraction of approximately 4 million tons in our exports to the European Union. The decline in our exports to the EU is expected to accelerate in the coming months,\u201d Yayan said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn the other hand, the presence of Chinese-origin steel products in the Turkish market continues to increase and steel imports from China reached approximately 2.5 million tons in the first seven months of the year,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"ANKARA T\u00fcrkiye\u2019s steel product exports rose 2.9 percent year-on-year in volume to 1.2 million tons and 4.4 percent…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":609482,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[72,113,61,60,90290,63623,1623],"class_list":["post-609481","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-economy","tag-business","tag-economy","tag-ie","tag-ireland","tag-steel-exports","tag-trkiye","tag-td"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/609481","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=609481"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/609481\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/609482"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=609481"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=609481"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=609481"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
