Rapidly falling ruble is forcing farmers to hold a new crop in anticipation of better prices

Launched on Wednesday, August 19, intervention came to nothing: in two days the state was able to buy only 10 thousand tons of grain from lowbrow Crimean agrarians. On Thursday at the auction exhibited 13636 tons of wheat, including 7560 tons of wheat of the 3rd class and 6075 tons of wheat of the 4th class of Volgograd, Saratov and Rostov regions and the Stavropol territory. But no deals were concluded.

Blame — the ruble, according to market participants. Since the beginning of the month, the national currency depreciated by 20%, although experts say that 67 rubles per dollar is a fair price, one does not exclude its further decline amid falling oil prices.

"The ruble fell again and now, and of course, more profitable for export

(to supply grain — approx. Agro2b)", — said on Thursday the President of the Russian grain Union Arkady Zlochevskiy.

However, the retailers already stated about the upcoming increase in food prices by 10%, including bakery products. Therefore, according to experts, farmers and domestic markets can count on more favorable price, but because holding grain.

According to "SovEcon", Stavropol ton of wheat of 3 class can be sold for 10 thousand rubles per ton, in the Volgograd region - 9,7 thousand rubles, in the Tambov region - for 9,5-9,7 thousand rubles. And we are talking about selling directly to processors. "These conditions are better than those offered by the state", - analysts say "SovEcon".

 

Indeed, the prices that the Ministry of agriculture previously developed and agreed with the Federal tariffs service, a few below. In particular, food wheat of the 3rd class in the regions of Central, northwestern, Volga, North Caucasus, southern and Crimean Federal districts of the state are willing to buy at 9700 rubles per ton, in the regions of the Ural, Siberian and far Eastern Federal districts - 9500 rubles.

However, as participants of the market say that the farmers know selling their crops to the state, the money they will receive not at once — in the best case two months later. Therefore, traditionally reluctant to part with the grain.

The Ministry of agriculture to this development were ready. As told to "Vedomosti" representative of the agricultural Department, "after the stabilization of the exchange rate we have no doubt that the domestic grain market will come alive".

Previously, the agricultural Ministry said that the intervention Fund will purchase two million tons of grain harvest in 2015. Just this year, Russia intends to collect more than 100 million tons of grain and about 30 million tonnes traditionally exported.
