In Indonesia, the government has at last taken the decision to file a formal complaint against US anti-dumping duties on Indonesian biodiesel at the World Trade Organization after having been pushed up against a wall with a deadline to file by February 3. Anti-dumping duties in the US are almost as high as 65%. Angered by similar treatment and having sought to make a deal with the US by setting a floor price for its biodiesel exports but failing to reach a deal, Argentina is expected to follow Indonesia’s lead soon.
