During the meeting with members of the association "National Farmer" First Deputy Minister of Agriculture Oksana Lut shared her forecasts.

She noted that in the first half of the agricultural year, 29 million tons were exported from Russia.

"In the second half of the year we hope to export about 30-35 million tons," the speaker said. Lout called this volume achievable under the current restrictions. She noted that without restrictions, they could count on a larger volume of grain exports.

"Unfortunately, there are situations that prevent us from exporting more. But if we export 30, it will be a good achievement," she added.
