Russian agricultural technology exports have reached 5.9 billion USD since the start of 2026, marking a six percent year-on-year increase, the Russian Ministry of Agriculture said.

This export category includes products that directly impact the efficiency of the agro-industrial complex: mineral fertilizers and plant protection products, seeds, breeding stock and genetic material, veterinary medicines and biotechnology products. Demand for such solutions and technologies is growing worldwide, especially in countries across Asia, the Middle East, Africa, and Latin America.

Mineral fertilizers remain the key commodity in the structure of agricultural technology exports, with shipments this year rising by almost seven percent to 5.5 billion USD. Brazil is the largest buyer of Russian mineral fertilizers.

Exports to China have increased by almost one and a half times since the start of the year, and those to India by more than 10 percent. Other segments linked to improving crop production efficiency are also showing growth. For example, exports of plant protection products increased by seven percent to 147 million USD. In addition, exports of wheat, barley and rapeseed have risen significantly.

Exports of biotech products — enzymes, starches, food additives and other goods — are showing the strongest growth. Since the start of the year, they have risen by more than 20 percent. Shipment volumes to all major importing countries — Belarus, Kazakhstan, and Uzbekistan — have increased. Shipments to India have almost tripled.

The livestock sector has also seen positive growth. Exports of veterinary vaccines have risen by six percent, while shipments of breeding poultry and pigs have increased. Twice as much genetic material has been sent to foreign markets, according to the Russian ministry.
