The Market

Demand in food and agricultural products is growing worldwide. Rising prices for agricultural produce come with significant growth potential for the agribusiness. Agriculture is one of the sectors in the Russian economy offering despite the economic downturn good prospects. One key to accelerate the development of agricultural capacity is the modernisation of Russian agriculture. Mechanisation and the implementation of adequate know-how are important factors in this respect. Investments in the modernisation of the agricultural sector are of great importance. The Russian Government is committed to boost agricultural production and to support the creation of added value in the country. This emphasizes how intense the work in the sector is. Interesting instruments are the maintenance and support of domestic manufacturers of agricultural machinery. For international suppliers of components and quipment in the Russian Federation as well as for investors it opens up opportunities for growth through cooperation in trade.
