MOSCOW, November 12. /TASS/. Russia harvested 141.5 mln metric tons of grain in the bunker weight since early 2025 and the forecast of harvesting 135 mln metric tons of grain in the net weight, Agriculture Minister Oksana Lut said when speaking at the State Duma, the lower house of the Russian parliament.

"As you know, this year evolves with difficulties for our agricultural producers. They faced the return cold and drought and other adverse weather phenomena in many regions. Nevertheless, it can be confidently stated that grain, potatoes, vegetables and fruits, some oil crops and sugar beet will be yielded higher than the last year. We have already harvested 141.5 mln tons of grains and pulses in the bunker weight at the moment. The forecast is kept at the level of 135 mln tons in the net weight as of the year-end," Lut said.

Several historical records are expected to be set, particularly in gathering pulses, soybeans, rapeseed, fruits and berries in the organized sector, she added.
