International grain prices suddenly plummeted, and the domestic grain prices in Austria were also impacted, with prices experiencing a steep decline.
Domestic grain prices in Austria had always been lower than international market levels, but this time they had finally converged with the international standard.
It wasn't just grain prices that continued to fall, but other agricultural product prices were similarly in decline. Capitalists were trying to hold the market, but it was futile against the vast supply.
As the international grain markets tumbled, a massive amount of raw grain was dumped onto the market, which also affected the export of processed grains.
Take flour exports as an example, not only has the price fallen by nine percent compared to the same period last year, but the total export volume has also shrunk by four percent.
