OREANDA-NEWS  Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin, during a report on the work of the government in the State Duma, announced a high level of ensuring the country's food security. This, according to him, became possible due to the high growth dynamics of the agro-industrial complex in Russia.

"Our farmers have not failed. The growth dynamics is over 10%. The level of food security in Russia is one of the most reliable in the world. We provide domestic demand with grain (177.8%, with a value of 95% in the Doctrine), sugar (103.2% instead of 90%), vegetable oil (211.1% instead of 90%), meat (100.9% instead of 85%) and fish (153.3% instead of 85%)," Mr. Mishustin explained.

According to the prime minister, a record grain harvest was recorded in Russia in 2022, it amounted to 157 million tons. Mikhail Mishustin called it a "huge success" of the Russian agricultural industry and stressed that there were no such harvest indicators even in Soviet times.
