Port grain exports tripled in October. In October, Russia exported 2.3 million tons of grain through ports compared to 7 million tons a year earlier, the Russian Green Union estimated. Shipments of wheat decreased 3.1 times, to 2 million tons, barley - 3.4 times, to 161.4 thousand tons. Corn remained at last year's level - 243.6 thousand tons. The supply of wheat to Egypt fell four times, to 380.8 thousand tons, to Turkey - 15.5 times, to 73.5 thousand tons. The increase in shipments to individual countries does not cover the overall failure. ️ During the first four months of the season, from July to October, 11.2 million tons of grain will be shipped through Russian ports against 24.2 million tons a year ago. Shipments of wheat dropped from 18.8 million to 7.8 million tons. Its supply geography has narrowed from 61 to 48 countries. Reconstruction of routes is visible from port statistics. Through the Black Sea Azov basin, grain exports decreased 4.7 times, to 4.2 million tons. Through the Baltic it increased almost ten times, up to 2.9 million tons. The Baltic ports are receiving additional volumes, but have not yet been able to replace the fallen southern passage. The government intervention that began in the local market is yielding modest amounts so far. During four trading days, between October 29 and November 3, 53,055 thousand tons of wheat were purchased for 625.9 million rubles. Today the state purchased 14,715 thousand tons - almost 30% more than in the previous auction. However, the total purge so far is about 1.8% of the stated goal of 3 million tons. If the intervention continues at the same rate, the redemption of 3 million tons was issued for about 226 trading days - about 10-11 months. Integronomy in Telegram.
