Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Patrushev held a meeting on the development of agricultural exports. The event was attended by Minister of Agriculture Oksana Lut, senior officials from relevant agencies, representatives of the Presidential Plenipotentiary Envoys to the federal districts, and heads of Russian regions.
"The Russian Federation remains a reliable trading partner, continuing to consistently supply agricultural goods and foodstuffs abroad. By the end of 2025, export volumes exceeded $41 billion. Sales of fish and seafood increased by 22%, meat and dairy products grew by approximately 20%, and confectionery exports grew by 14%. Our country maintains a leading position in the trade of wheat, fish, and sunflower oil. Our exports reach over 160 countries, with 90% of the total volume going to friendly countries. Thus, Russia makes a significant contribution to global food security," said Dmitry Patrushev.
The export portfolio is steadily expanding, with a notable trend last year being a significant increase in the supply of high-value-added products. Volume increased by 12% to $20 billion.
The Deputy Prime Minister recalled that the Russian President had set a target for export volumes to be 1.5 times higher than 2021 levels by 2030. In monetary terms, this would amount to over $55 billion. The Deputy Prime Minister noted that achieving this target requires the consolidated efforts of government agencies and businesses.
Dmitry Patrushev instructed the Ministry of Agriculture to monitor the implementation of export plans. The Deputy Prime Minister emphasized the importance of exploring new opportunities to stimulate supplies and diversify product ranges in the current situation.
