    Eduard Zernin, chairman of the Russian Grain Exporters Union, said during the China Business Forum in Moscow that the Chinese market is open to wheat and barley from various regions of Russia, which is very important for Russia.
    Producers and exporters are extremely important, so large-scale grain exports to China may begin in 2022-2023 .
     
    On February 4, during his visit to China, Russian President Vladimir Putin met with Chinese President Xi Jinping, and the two sides signed a bilateral agreement allowing wheat and barley to be exported to China from all regions of Russia
    .
    Previously, wheat and barley could only be exported from seven regions of Russia: Altai Krai, Krasnoyarsk Krai, Chelyabinsk Region, Omsk Region, Novosibirsk Region, Amur Region and Chur dry state
    .

     
    In 2021, only 55,000 tons of wheat, worth $13 million, will be shipped from Russia to China, and 94,000 tons of barley, worth $23 million

    Zernin pointed out that the signed agreement makes it possible to start large-scale grain exports from Russia's Azov and Black Sea coasts, which will greatly increase exports
    .

     
    He said: "There will be one or two trial exports at the beginning, and large-scale exports may begin in 2022-23
    .
    We expect that there will be at least 1 million tons, and there will be a substantial increase in the future
    .
    "
     
    According to Zernin, Russian wheat has few competitors in terms of price/performance
    .

    2 million tons of wheat, worth $2.
