Taking into account the current export pace, shipments may drop to a record low of 1.5-1.6 million tons by the end of the month, the company's Telegram channel reports. Analysts estimate the total wheat supply volume since the quota took effect (February 15) at 7.9-8 million tons, or 75% of its volume of 10.6 million tons. So far, 7.4 million tons of wheat have been supplied to foreign markets within the quota — 69% of its total volume. At the end of April, ProZerno's CEO Vladimir Petrichenko estimated that Russia would export no more than 7-7.5 million tons of wheat within the quota. He explained that exports have ceased to be the locomotive in the grain market that set the tone for both demand and prices since January. Other industry analysts also agreed that the quota would not be fully utilized.
