Russia’s grain harvest this year has already set a new record, the country’s Agriculture Ministry said on Wednesday on its official Telegram channel.
“To date, 147.5 million tons in bunker weight have been harvested, with harvesting still ongoing,” the ministry announced.
“We expect to reap a maximum of 150 million tons. Of course, this is an absolute success for our farmers and the Russian agriculture industry as a whole,” he stated.
The previous record had been set in 2017, when the country reaped 135.5 million tons of grain, including 86 million tons of wheat.
