Due to the course of harvesting campaign, the export volumes of grains will continue growing, and in September Russia will export nearly 4.2-4.4 million tons of grains, which will exceed the index of the same month last year (4.18 million tons), said the analyst.
At the same time, in July and August the shipment volumes will be somewhat lower compared with last year. Thus in July the index will reach 2 million tons against 2.66 million tons in 2015.

In August, the exports will increase to 3.5-3.8 million tons, as opposed to 4.2 million tons in August 2015. (APK-Inform/Business World Magazine)
