Tridge summary

The course for the development of export of value-added products was set by the President of the country Vladimir Putin several years ago. Since then, there has been no global restructuring of the supply structure, but some sectors of the agro-industrial complex have indeed stepped up the export of such goods. The meat, dairy, fat-and-oil, confectionery, and beverage industries can count on the further successful conquest of the world market. Agriculture is systematically moving away from exclusively grain exports, the share of supplies of products with high added value is growing, said Russian Agriculture Minister Dmitry Patrushev in the spring. In 2020, we managed to achieve a significant increase in this category. So, according to Agroexport, the export of food and processing industry products increased in relation to the 2019 indicator by more than 15% to $ 4.5 billion. The geography of supplies is also expanding: for example, Russian ice cream has appeared in 35 countries, and Russian honey - at 29.
