Kazakhstan boosted grain exports

The Food Contract Corporation exported some 430 KMT of grains in 2018, reports UkrAgroConsult.

These included the following:

• wheat 
• 158 KMT to Transcaucasia;
• 128.4 KMT to Central Asia;
• 30 KMT to China;
• barley
• 110.6 KMT to Iran.

The rise in exports resulted from resumption of wheat supplies to Turkmenistan and the Transcaucasian countries. In 2017, the Food Contract Corporation shipped abroad over 120 KMT of grains and oilseeds.
