Kazakhstan's grain processors are facing challenges due to issues with grain exports and excess volume, with a representative noting that developing domestic demand is not possible due to equal access conditions for grain and flour sales. The country is currently exporting 'flour' to China, which is actually feed flour from barley, chalk, and crushed grain, and is only allowed from three regions. The representative also mentioned that his company is purchasing only Kazakh grain this marketing year and expressed the need for changing tactics due to retaliatory sanctions from Russia. Millers are urging Kazakhstan to impose exports duties on grain and leave the exit for finished products free, following the example of Russia, which is expected to reach 2 million tons in flour exports in the next 1-2 years.
