Belarus has no plans to import grain this year

06.08.2015

This year Belarus is not going to import grain, Belarus' Minister of Agriculture and Food Leonid Zayats told reporters, BelTA has learned. "We think that this year we will not purchase grain from abroad. We will analyze the quality of wheat which is primarily used for bakery purposes and for making pasta,” he noted.  Leonid Zayats stressed that today Belarus can be self-sufficient in terms of bread and also in terms of other products, such as milk, meat, and others. The minister said that the country also exports some of farm products. The geography of export is constantly growing. This year the efforts have been taken to diversify the markets.
