By the end of 2022, Kazakhstan will export about 1.85 mln tonnes of flour, the President of the Union of Grain Processors of Kazakhstan Alikhan Talgatbek predicted at the international Asia Grains & Oils Conference in Qazaqstan 2022 in Astana on November 10.

“As of November 1, the export of flour totaled 1.49 mln tonnes that exceeded the result of full previous year. We plan to ship 450-500 thsd tonnes of flour in November-December. Thus, the surplus will be 28%”, – A. Talgatbek said.

The Union of Grain Processors calls on the authorities to pay closer attention to the export of flour, not grain.

“We are ready to increase flour exports, we have available capacities. It is necessary to defeat the stereotypes that it is better to export grain, not flour. Kazakhstan has all the competitive advantages – its own grain, its own production facilities, its own railway logistics”, – A. Talgatbek emphasized.

At the same time, for the development of exports in the near future, it is necessary to solve logistical problems with a shortage of wagons and a transportation tariff policy.
