MOSCOW: Russia’s agriculture minister Dmitry Patrushev on Thursday said that the country will export 55 million metric tons of grain in 2023, Interfax reported.

“This year we plan to export, taking into account our plans for the harvest, about 55 million tonnes. This figure can be adjusted upwards. If we see that our forecasts for grain volumes are growing, we will adjust the figure for export volumes,” Patrushev was quoted as saying to journalists in Russia’s Omsk region.
