"The list of importing countries has expanded to 10 this year. The volume of flour and cereal exports increased by almost 8 thousand tons. Samples taken by Rosselkhoznadzor specialists underwent laboratory testing. According to the results of the examinations, no harmful quarantine organisms or pests of grain reserves were identified.
