Kazakh flour exports down almost one-third from last year

144 KMT of Kazakh flour was exported in October (+24% from September and -30% from October 2020/21). 252 KMT had been exported this season. This is 30% lower than a year ago, UkrAgroConsult reports.

Flour exports from Kazakhstan are made mostly to the four traditional destinations: in October, small shipments were also made to Iran, Moldova and China (less than 0.2 KMT combined).

As before, the top buyer is Afghanistan, but flour imports from Kazakhstan to this country fell by 45% from the same time last year.

Other importers slightly increased purchases from last season: Uzbekistan (+12% y-o-y), Tajikistan (+15%), Turkmenistan (up 3.5 times).
