Agricultural exports to Russia to hit 1 million tonnes in 2016
Egypt intends to increase its exports of vegetable and fruits to the Russian market to one million tonnes by end of 2016, an official from the Egyptian Agricultural Export Council said Tuesday. Mustafa El-Nagari, Head of the Rice Committee of the Egyptian Agricultural Export Council, said the agricultural exports to Russia reached 800,000 tonnes worth USD524 million in 2015. The anticipated increase will be through exporting higher value-added products, particularly tomatoes, plums, and apricots, El-Nagari said. (Amwal Al Ghad)
