Thailand offers Iran food for plastic pellets, fertiliserCholathee Noomnoo, a durian grower in Trat province, checks his stock of fertilizer on Tuesday, saying he is running short and finding it difficult to buy more. “The present source of plastic pellets is the Middle East. The present stock of plastic pellets in Thailand will run out by the end of April,” she said. Exports could include processed food and some raw materials that Thailand has contracted to sell to the Middle East. Such deals should be discussed with not only Iran but also other countries in the Middle East, the commerce minister said.
