“Last year, we launched this mechanism and are exploring new markets in Latin America. Our Siberian grain is now being sent there on a regular basis. Moreover, we have already started setting up flour production there. And we are not stopping. Africa is next in line. This is alongside our traditional markets, [which are also promising for the supply of Siberian grain],” noted the plenipotentiary representative of the Russian president in the Siberian Federal District, Anatoly Seryshev.

He reminded that Russian President Vladimir Putin has set the task of increasing agricultural production by a quarter within six years.

“We have an understanding where we will be supplying this production,” emphasized Seryshev.
