Who is asking the Ministry of Agriculture to ban grain exports?

The Chamber of Entrepreneurs of the Pavlodar region is trying to curb the flow of grain from the region. The owners of 21 mills, of which seven are large, are concerned about the outflow of grain from the region, reports World of NAN, citing inbusiness.kz.

After the Russian government issued a decree banning the export of sugar and grain, including to the EEU countries, foreign traders by artificially inflating the purchase price buy Pavlodar wheat from farmers.

For this reason, the region's grain-processing plants are idle. According to the RCE's press service, this fact generates shadow schemes, including sham transactions by issuing fictitious invoices and receipts. We found facts of shady conspiracy on exports. The regional prosecutor's office sent a letter to the deputy governor of the region on the need to consider the issue of introducing a temporary ban on the export of grain, it was duplicated in the Ministry of Agriculture.

As for fictitious invoices, according to press-service information, some grain growers show one sown area on papers, but in fact they do not correspond to documents. If the situation is not changed, bakers of Pavlodar may be left without flour in the near future.

Today there are 150 thousand tons of bread wheat in elevators and granaries of the region.  Flour mills have 75.8 thousand tons. Although the annual demand of the region is 460 thousand tons, i.e. the need may not cover the processing.
