"We can say that in 2019, taking into account those assumptions that are inherent on the order of 108-110 million tons we probably will have. In particular, we plan to collect about 67 million tons of wheat," — said Patrushev.
He also said that the projected figures for the export of grain and wheat: 42 million tonnes and 36 million tonnes, respectively. This Patrushev stressed that the forecasts do still early, and this data is "the mark".
In January, the Association of producers and suppliers of food products "Rusprodsoyuz" warned about a possible increase in bread prices by 6-7%. The reason for the rise in price of wheat due to the reduction of the crop. Executive Director of the Association Dmitry Vostrikov said that compared to January 2018, prices of wheat flour increased by 30%. The Ministry of agriculture considered that the increase in the price of bread corresponds to the rate of inflation.
