Farmers and agricultural technicians are faced with dramatic changes in the sales market. Buyers from other countries are actively buying Russian vegetables, while agricultural producers are looking for ways to survive in the face of growing difficulties. The article will examine the problems and prospects of Russian agriculture, highlighting data and expert opinions.
Russian farmer Arkady Dudov has attracted public attention with his words about how foreign buyers, especially Poles, are actively buying Russian vegetables without haggling over prices. According to him, prices for Russian products are significantly lower than in Europe, which makes them very attractive for export.
Data from the Volgograd Region Agriculture Committee confirm that since the beginning of the year, more than 841 thousand tons of agricultural products have already been exported. Major export destinations include Turkey, India, Egypt and other countries. However, agricultural producers face difficulties in the grain market. The situation is aggravated by the termination of the grain deal, which will result in increased prices for Russia for the supply of products through the Black Sea.
Farmers talk about the difficulties faced by small and medium-sized farms. High energy costs, difficulties in attracting qualified personnel and high cost of equipment make vegetable production unprofitable.
Russian agriculture faces challenges related to global competition and internal difficulties, such as high costs and a lack of qualified personnel. However, despite the difficulties, opportunities for export remain, and Russian farmers and agricultural producers are looking for ways for sustainable development.
