Rostov region will increase exports of agricultural products to China: meal, oil, duck, and turkey.

In 2024, the Rostov region plans to increase the volume of exports of agro-industrial products to China. This was announced by the deputy governor and minister of agriculture and food of the Rostov region, Konstantin Rachalovsky.

China is one of the largest trading partners of the region. Last year, the export of agricultural products from the Rostov region to China tripled compared to the previous year and amounted to 662 thousand tons with a total value of 294 million dollars.

The main types of products exported to China include cake meals, sunflower oil, and flax seeds. Last year, the export of dried peas was also launched, and permits for the export of Peking duck and turkey were issued to two enterprises of the "Damate" company. At the moment, about 240 tons of duck and turkey meat from the Rostov region have already been sent to China.

In addition, new types of products were added to the export shipments last year, such as milk and cream, as well as rapeseed and rapeseed oil.

The Rostov region plans to further develop trade cooperation with China. In this regard, a delegation from the region is participating in the international exhibition of food and specialized equipment "SIAL China," which is currently taking place in China.

The stand of the Rostov region presents products from 36 leading enterprises of the food and processing industry of the region, including the flour and cereal industry, confectionery production, oil and fat industry, and brewing industry.
