Russia has already sold half of the state grain reserves

27

The Russian Ministry of Agriculture has already sold half of the state grain stocks in order to increase supplies to the domestic market amid the COVID-19 epidemic. This was reported by the online edition of Agriculture, citing information from Reuters.

It is noted that on April 24, 2020, the department sold at an auction 77 tons of grain, mainly wheat, for 430 billion rubles ($ 0,9 million). In total, from the beginning of sales on April 12, 13, the department sold 2020 tons of grain from available stocks.



At the same time, it is specified that exporters are prohibited from participating in these auctions. The agency plans to sell up to 1,5 million tons of grain to the domestic market, i.e. 83% of government stocks.

In addition, Russia set a quota for grain exports in the amount of 7 million tons for the period from April to June this year. According to reports, only 2,6 million tons of grain are available for export from the indicated quota.

Thus, as soon as the indicated grain quota is exhausted, Russia, being the world's largest exporter of wheat, will stop delivering these products to foreign markets.

      ... and from the FFP2 series respirator almost 100% will protect you from infection. ..

      What nonsense! No respirator will save you from infection, as long as you have unprotected mucous membranes in your eyes.
      A mask worn on you can protect others from you, but again not an FFP2 respirator! Because this respirator filters only inhalation, and on exhalation it has a simple rubber valve. Take this respirator in your hands and you will immediately understand everything.

        In general, you can’t sell grain so that you can later buy abroad (expensive) meat grown there on your (cheap) grain.

          You can’t sell grain at all

          This is not about export, but about selling grain to domestic producers. Why not sell on the domestic market? What will you make bread and pasta from? What to feed the animal?request

    How much has been said that the mask on the face of a person does not protect HIM itself. It protects others from possible infection by coughing and sneezing. The virus does not fly through the air itself. It is contained in sputum, droplets that fly out during these physiological processes.
    Are you really so dumb that you need to personally drive it in?

      ... How much has been said that the mask on the face of a person does not protect HIM himself ..

      If you read carefully, then I wrote the same thing.

      ... The virus does not fly through the air itself. It is found in sputum, droplets that fly out during these physiological processes ..

      This is not quite true here. The virus also "flies", turning under certain conditions into an aerosol. The same sputum, flying out during coughing to a distance of several meters, at the end of the trajectory becomes finely dispersed (see aerosol).
      Further much depends on external factors (wind, humidity, etc.). The size and specific gravity of the virus itself also matters. The influenza virus, for example, is very small, and can spread by air masses inside even very large rooms, and hang in the air for up to several hours. Coronavirus is heavier and faster on the ground. But under certain external conditions it can also “fly”.

      Mask. The mask holds sputum - that's right. The FFP2 mask - (again) filters only by inspiration. On exhalation there is a regular rubber valve, which, without filtration, releases an exhalation stream with all contents. Yes, the direction of the jet is down and to the side, but, as mentioned above, under certain conditions .... etc, etc.

      ... Are you so stupid that you need to personally drive it in? ..

      THIS IS FOR YOU.

      Of the surplus grain, you need to make, for example, compound feed for the development of your own (unfortunately neglected) livestock / poultry farming.
      Serving cheap grain abroad, and then buying expensive meat / poultry from abroad is irrational.
      But if you already sell, then not in the form of raw materials, but at least a product: the same compound feed, or flour.

    Only the deep processing of grain as an export of the fatherland, from flour products - such as pasta and the like, like chips, and as residual livestock feed, will certainly be perceived as an achievement in the agricultural fatherland.

    So what the hell to write about protection, which is not, in connection with open eyes? It is not connected, the eyes are separate, and the protective properties of the respirator (masks - separately). Do not get out. You can not.

      Yes, no one gets out. Something wrong with your logic. This is a respirator (or mask - as you please) labeled FFP2. This mask is not designed to protect against the virus. It is an industrial dust mask. Yes, the porosity of this mask (protective standard FFP2 and 3) is capable of delaying large viruses, as well as fine dust, but protection loses its meaning in unprotected mucous membranes of the eyes.
      To protect others, it is generally unsuitable because of a direct-flow exhaust valve. That is, only part of the sputum will be retained on the inner side of the walls, and the main stream of exhaled air will exit through the valve.
      It is impossible to remove the valve on the FFR2 mask, because the density of the material is quite high. This mask is not particularly comfortable to breathe. Inhaling is rather difficult. If without a valve, exhaling will simply remove the mask from the face.
      In short - FFT2 as it is - could be used to protect against infection, but in conjunction with additional eye protection special. glasses.
      To protect others, a conventional multilayer gauze medical mask is better suited. There, exhalation takes place in the mask material, and it may delay something.
      Do not sweat people with your misunderstanding brains. Better include yours when you read.

    You can not even make feed, but cakes. In stock. Only if fermenting is not grain, but compound feed that animals and poultry do not have time to eat (its amount is fairly accurately defined), it will still be lost, but a more valuable product.

    Need to support your livestock

    Livestock breeding is not primarily feed (it will be needed later), but selection. In Denmark, a royal herd of cows gives an AVERAGE of 80 liters of milk per day for each dairy cow. Royal - because when the king was cut off funds for maintenance, he was told that he needed to deal with a slingshot. Milk production. A divine product, not sausage (blood and murder) .... Of course, the king himself, not his family, went to the cowsheds. HIS subsidiary farming. Wearing a uniform with a king monogram on the back for any specialist is a reward. Specialists are the highest. The content of the herd is highest. Does not sell milk - TRANSFER to kindergartens, hospitals, hospitals. For this he was added a little money from the state. By the decision of the Parliament. This is, first of all, production facilities. First of all, these are structures involved in both cultivation and fodder production.
    Sitting on the couch, not having a crinkle in the head, it’s easy to argue with manilism. The country needed billions of investments to build a modern poultry industry, which is the fastest distributing product. 60 days from the egg to the finished carcass in the store. Slingshot - at least a year. Pig farming is about it. For the production of beef, pork, lamb, funds are needed no less than for poultry.

    A completely different grain goes to livestock feed. Wheat for breadmaker - has a lot of gluten, which does not go to feed livestock. And not wheat, but peas, corn, barley and meal (squeezed sunflower seeds). You need a lot of fish, in the form of flour, green stuff - herbs of different grades, shell rock (for poultry). Macaroni to Italy. There they will die from laughter. They are not so used to eating. The French are behind them. Arabs will spit. Or do you know how to quickly rebuild production under the country of the export agreement?

      The conversation is precisely "about this". The Russian government has no leverage to effectively influence grain exporters, who both sold and will sell grain abroad, but no longer "directly", but through the "laying" firms of "friendly" countries that enjoy a special priority position and export benefits -import. It seems that the "experience" with Belarus, the "largest shrimp exporter" to Russia, is trying not to remember.

    And this is about Russia, where the "democratic stratum" curses Putin in terrorist voluntarism. How is this possible in a country with "excessive presidential power"? Or do you set yourself a goal to shit? And it doesn't matter for what reason and where.
