According to EastFruit analysts, record high prices for marketable potatoes in Russia and fears of a shortage of potatoes in the 2021/22 season are forcing Russian entrepreneurs to look for suppliers of tubers around the world now, when local stocks are traditionally the highest.
At the moment, supplies of products are carried out from Kyrgyzstan and Moldova. Also, according to traders, more and more potatoes are supplied to the Russian market from Iran. In parallel, an active study of the possibilities of importing potatoes from Pakistan is under way.
