🇷🇺🌍Export of agro-industrial products from Russia to Africa in 2023 grew by a quarter, says ministry of agriculture "Last year our exports to Africa grew by a quarter and almost reached $6 billion, 80% of which is wheat," said Russian Deputy Minister of Agriculture Sergey Levin during a session at the ongoing #SPIEF2024. Levin added, "What is interesting here is that we are also increasing our food purchases in Africa, and for the same last year we already exceeded the level of $2.1 billion, importing everything that does not grow in our country, such as fruits, vegetables, cocoa beans, and we intend to develop this further." "The dynamics of this year emphasize this fact, because we have already traded with each other about $3 billion or even more in January-April 2024," he added. According to the minister, Africa is becoming an increasingly important market. Subscribe to @sputnik_africa 🔸TikTok | Sputnik Africa | Boost us on Telegram🔸
