has announced the addition of the "Russia Agribusiness Report Q2
2012" report to their offering.
A bumper grains crop is expected for Russia in 2011/12, enabling
it to flood export markets with cheap wheat and barley. We expect
the country's grains production growth to slow in 2012/13, however,
resulting in a smaller share of global exports for the Black Sea
region as a whole. We forecast strong poultry production growth in
2011/12 but are more cautious about the livestock industry's
longterm prospects. Indeed, subsidies to the sector will be phased
out in the context of the country's entry to the WTO, which could
take some producers out of business. We do not expect significant
growth opportunities in the dairy sector in 2011/12 owing to a fall
in the country's dairy herd and reduced demand.
Russia Agribusiness service provides proprietary medium term
price forecasts for key commodities, including corn, wheat, rice,
sugar, cocoa, coffee, soy and milk; in addition to newly-researched
competitive intelligence on leading agribusiness producers, traders
and suppliers; in-depth analysis of latest industry developments;
and essential industry context on Russia's agribusiness
service.
Key Forecasts
- Wheat production growth to 2015/16: Growth of 62.2% to 67.3mn
tonnes as yield gains and better access to export markets in Asia
boost wheat production in the medium term.
- Poultry consumption growth to 2015/16: Growth of 33.6% to 3.8mn
tonnes as the poultry segment benefits from its status as the
cheapest meat compared with other livestock products.
- Milk production growth to 2015/16: Growth of 10.9% to 35.3mn
tonnes as yields rise following government investment in the
sector. Furthermore, rising incomes will lead to increased domestic
demand over the long term despite the country's falling
population.
- 2012 real GDP growth: 3.2% (down from 3.3% in 2011; predicted
to average 3.9% from 2011- 2016).
- Food price inflation: 6.4% year-on-year (y-o-y) on average in
2012 (down from 8.5% y-o-y on average in 2011).
