«Latin American countries are among the new buyers of Russian wheat. For example, Brazil received 62,000 tons and Peru 49,000 tons. In 2022 Brazil and Peru did not buy our wheat,» Tiurina said, adding that 33 countries in the world received shipments of Russian wheat in July.
The Russian Grain Union estimates that corn exports increased by 40 percent and reached 319,400 tons. In the case of barley, 822,000 tons were exported, which represented an increase of 160 percent
For this reason, President Vladimir Putin assures that Russia can replace Ukraine as the world’s supplier of grain, arguing that his country produces much more grain than its neighbor.
During the Africa-Russia summit carried out last week, the Russian leader promised to deliver free grain cargoes to Burkina Faso, Zimbabwe, Mali, Somalia, the Central African Republic, and Eritrea. So far this year, Russia has shipped nearly 10 million tons to Africa, of which 9 million tons were wheat shipments.
