As the head of the center Igor Pavensky told Interfax, the export of wheat will amount to 4.45 million tons (4.09 million tons a year ago), barley - about 0.52 million tons (0.56 million tons), corn - 150 thousand tons (264 thousand tons). In September, deep-water ports (Novorossiysk, Taman, Tuapse) can ship 1.5-1.9 million tons of grain against 2.1 million tons in August this year and 2.082 million tons in September 2017. From September 1 to September 11, 593.3 thousand tons were shipped. Transshipment through the port of Kavkaz from September 1 to 11 amounted to 665 thousand tons (for the entire September of last year - 1.59 million tons, for the whole of August of this year - 2.15 million tons). I. Pavensky noted that export prices for Russian wheat with a protein content of 12.5% for delivery in September-October, under the influence of lower prices on the world market and low demand, dropped over the week by $ 2.5-5.5, to $ 217- 220 per ton. Purchase prices of milling wheat (12.5%) in deep-water ports increased by 100 rubles, to 12,800-13,200 rubles per tonne (excluding VAT). On "low water" prices fell by 50 rubles, to 12,400 rubles per ton. The expert stressed that the domestic wheat market was stable. “Market participants are again talking about a decrease in business activity, as farmers are holding back grain in anticipation of higher prices, which is facilitated by a new round of ruble depreciation,” he said.
