Russia: Malting barley imports are forecast to decrease

Russia's barley harvest this year was of 16.0 to 16.5 million tonnes, according to statistics authorities. Exports of feed barley amounted to 834,000 tons from July 1 till November 10. Supplies close to Black Sea harbours are almost exhausted, total exports are expected not higher than 1.0 to 1.1 million tonnes.

The crop of two-row spring malting barley was of exceptional quality, forecasts of Russian malting barley imports have been reduced time and again, some guesses go below 100,000 tons. Question is whether the Russian storage system can maintain an unprecedented large quantity of 1.7 million tonnes of malting barley in sufficiently good condition through next spring and summer.
