The article outlines the anticipated harvest and export expectations for the upcoming grain season in Russia, highlighting a forecast of a smaller harvest than the previous year but still a significant one. Despite the positive yield and record export volumes in the recent grain season, farmers are not experiencing increased profitability due to fading hopes for higher prices. The geopolitical challenges and weather conditions have influenced the grain market, leading to shifts in export destinations. Despite these challenges, there is optimism for the future, with the creation of a grain exchange among BRICS countries and prospects for increased exports to growing markets in Africa and Asia, offsetting the potential impact of tariffs on Russian grain supplies to the EU. However, farmers face financial challenges, with profitability decreasing in remote areas from the export infrastructure.
