Belarus may increase grain production up to 10 mln tonnes in future

Belarus in future may increase annual grain production up to 10 mln tonnes, declared Vladimir Gusakov, Deputy Chairman of National Academy of Sciences, during the press conference in Minsk.

The Academy came up with suggestion that Belarus should harvest 10 mln tonnes of grain annually, including 1 mln tonnes of maize, reported V. Gusakov. Thus, the country would completely satisfy own needs in milling and feed grain, and annually export 2-3 mln tonnes of grain, added Deputy Chairman.

According to him, the necessity of grain production increase is caused by growth of the prices for grain.
