Supplementary notes

*Forecast.

The source specified the following information:
"Production refers to the full amount of the harvest before any deductions are taken for post-harvest losses, seed use, etc.

Total cereals include wheat, coarse grains (maize, barley, sorghum, oats, rye, millet, and other minor grains not elsewhere specified) and rice (in milled equivalent).

Commodity balances apply a marketing year (or marketing season) approach, meaning that values refer to a 12-month period that starts with the harvest of the main crop (which may or may not coincide with the calendar year)."

In the crop year 2024/25, cereal production in Russia was forecast at 121.2 million metric tons. That would indicate a decrease by roughly 15.6 million metric tons compared to the previous agricultural year. Russia allocated approximately 213 hectares of organic farmland for cereals.

What cereals are produced in Russia?

The main cereals cultivated in the country are wheat, barley, rye, and maize. They are used in the production of flour, bread and pastry, compound feed, rice, or groats. With a wheat production volume of 81.5 million metric tons, Russia is the fourth-largest producer of that commodity worldwide. Furthermore, the country ranks as the second-largest barley producing region after the European Union, with an output of over 16 million metric tons.

Russian cereal exports

In line with a projected decline in production, Russian exports of cereals were expected to decrease in the crop year 2024/25 and reach around 58.8 million metric tons. The country will remain the world's largest wheat exporter, with the volume of exported wheat and flour and wheat products estimated at 46 million metric tons.
