[Regnum] Russian President Vladimir Putin, during a meeting with representatives of the agro-industrial complex in the Stavropol region, announced a possible increase in grain exports from Russia in the 2023-2024 agricultural year to 65 million tons.
“We exported grains, in my opinion, in the last season of 2022-2023, about 53.5 million tons, and here it will be, in 2023-2024, up to 65 million tons, something like this,” said the head of state.
Putin noted the special role of logistics in this issue, since the volumes are very large.
As Regnum reported, Putin arrived in Stavropol on March 5. The President visited the local greenhouse complex and talked with its workers, and also took part in the opening of new production facilities in Mordovia, Leningrad and Belgorod regions via video link. Also in Stavropol, the head of state is scheduled to meet with Governor Vladimir Vladimirov.
During a meeting with workers of the Solnechny Dar greenhouse complex, Putin called for increasing tomato production so as “not to ask friends.” The Russian leader noted that an increase in consumption and supply on the market is necessary, then a situation will never arise in which it is urgently necessary to ask for help.
During a meeting with representatives of the agro-industrial complex, responding to one of the interlocutors, the head of state noted that competitors are opposing the development of not only the country’s agricultural sector, but in all areas where Russia is beginning to grow, therefore it is necessary to support domestic producers.
