Two largest buyers of Russian grain named

In the 2026/27 agricultural season, the largest importers of Russian grain are Iran and China. This was reported by Interfax with reference to the Grain Association of Russia.

It is noted that since the beginning of the season, these two states have purchased 1.1 million tons of grain. Next came Egypt with a result of 873 thousand tons. Türkiye imported 583 thousand, and Azerbaijan - 448 thousand tons.

It was previously reported that, according to the executive director of the national Grain Association, Ksenia Bolomatova, recently a drop in the level of competitiveness of exported grain has become a relatively new problem for Russian agricultural exporters. The reason for this was the restructuring of logistics and the extension of delivery routes due to problems with export through the Azov-Black Sea basin.
