Ukraine 2011/12 Grain Exports To Double

15/04/11 -- There's a long way to go before the harvest is in, but UkrAgroConsult are already predicting Ukraine to export 22-23 MMT of grain in 2011/12, double the 11 MMT that they are expected to export in the current MY.

It doesn't matter if it doesn't rain between now and harvest, these lads are salivating so much at the prospect of getting some foreign wonga in that they're self-irrigating the crops themselves.

As reported earlier in the week Kazakhstan are eyeing up a "return to normal service" this year. All we need now is for Russia to get their finger out and we'll have Primark, Matalan and TK Maxx all fully restocked and ready to throw the great summer sale doors open come harvest time, and the rest of the High Street can go hang.
