Agricultural producers of the Kurgan region very soon, in the fall of this year, will begin to export wheat grain to the market of the People’s Republic of China.

Such information was shared by employees of the Federal Service for Veterinary and Phytosanitary Surveillance. The ministry also noted that today, producers of Kurgan grain are getting acquainted with all the requirements for product quality that were sent by Chinese buyers.

The first deliveries will begin when the Kurgan farmers provide the Chinese side with comprehensive official information regarding the quality of their grain. According to preliminary data, the current year’s harvest is fully consistent with all the food needs of the Chinese.

It should be noted that today in the Kurgan region representatives of six agricultural enterprises are engaged in grain shipments to the foreign market. It is known that Kurgan farmers export wheat grain and peas to the Kazakhstan market.

As for barley, it goes straight from the Kurgan fields to buyers from Azerbaijan and Lithuania. Rapeseed is shipped to Mongolia, and Kurgan flax in especially large sizes is shipped to both the Czech Republic and China.

Last year, producers of the Kurgan region sent over one hundred seventeen and a half thousand tons of grain and products from it to foreign markets.

The most popular on world trading platforms are Kurgan wheat (the volume of shipments in 2018 is fifty-one thousand two hundred tons), rapeseed (forty thousand tons) and barley (at least seventeen and a half thousand tons).
