Russian agricultural exports to Malaysia increased fivefold

Supplies of Russian agricultural products to Malaysia reached 8.8 thousand tons in January-August, increasing fivefold year-on-year. The federal center “Agroexport” reports this with reference to expert assessments.

At the same time, the cost of supplies increased 5.5 times, to $9 million, while for the entire last year it amounted to 3.1 million. Thus, both indicators of Russian exports to this Asian country jumped several times in 2026.

It is also noted that about two-thirds ($5.9 million) of Russian products purchased by Malaysia accounted for the supply of rapeseed oil. Earlier it became known that China is also increasing purchases of this type of domestic agricultural products.
