This year, Russian farmers can harvest up to 150 million tons of grain, but a large harvest is a problem.

Such a proposal is indicated in a letter sent to the President of Russia.

This summer, Europe faced a severe drought, as a result, the Rhine, Loire, Danube and other major rivers became shallow, which paralyzed shipping.

We are talking about subsidies that made it possible to compensate for up to 50% of the cost of purchasing animal feed.

One of the main reasons for this is the increased competitiveness of palm oil against other oils and fats.

At the National Commodity Exchange from August 1 to October 21, transactions were carried out for 1 million tons of grain, 15 billion rubles were spent on them.

According to Rosstat, this year was the period when the Russian Federation significantly reduced the production of many types of fertilizers.

According to Rosstat, the rice harvest in 2021 decreased by at least 6% compared to 2020, and as a result amounted to 1 million tons.

Compared to the same period last year, in the 3rd quarter of 2022, transshipment volumes in Russian ports decreased by an average of 0.5%.

In connection with the current situation in the world, it is becoming increasingly difficult for Russian agricultural traders to enter the world market with grain.
