Russia: The availability of malting barley and the needs of malting industry in Russia
Of the total crop of 16-17 Million tonnes about 3.0 to 3.5 Million tonnes may be selected for malting. Total needs of the rapidly growing malting industry, according to analysts estimations would be of 3.75 Million tonnes.
Quality of domestic malting barley is decidedly better than last year. Russian feed barley exports were 650,000 tonnes during July/September. Due to dry conditions Russia planted less winter wheat in the regions adjacent to the Black Sea, and the 2006 grain crop is expected smaller.
For a large country like Russia the impact of a partial crop failure will be much less dramatic than for neighbouring Ukraine.
