MOSCOW: Russia has substantially reduced rapeseed exports due to rapeseed crop failure and the increased interest of crushers to this crop. Thus, only 18 KMT of rapeseed had been supplied to foreign markets during 4 months of the current season (July-October), that is the minimum figure for the current period from season 2012/13. As a reminder, the Russian Federation has exported 100.4 KMT of rapeseed for July-October in 2014.
A characteristic feature of the new season is a significant increase of shipments to China.
