Posted: 03.02.2026

Dear colleagues and readers!

We inform you that from February 19 to 20, 2026, the X Anniversary International Agricultural Forum “Grains of Russia – 2026” will gather key players in the grain market in Sochi!

Venue: Sochi, Castle-Hotel "Bogatyry"

The event traditionally brings together leaders and specialists of the Russian agro-industrial complex, as well as representatives of government bodies and science. The focus of this year's forum is on grain marketing strategies, development trends for oilseed crops, which are currently attracting high interest among farmers, and digitalization of agriculture.

This event will be interesting for those involved in growing cereal and oilseed crops, storage and processing of grains, logistics and transportation, production and distribution of fertilizers and plant protection products, as well as seed breeding.

"In 2026 we not only continue our tradition but also raise the bar by focusing on the most relevant and promising areas," comments Olga Rogacheva, head of the organizing committee of the forum. "Our goal is to create an environment where producers, processors, and traders can find answers to pressing questions—from selection and agronomy to logistics and access to new markets. We expect participants not only from all over Russia and CIS countries but also foreign companies interested in cooperation with Russian businesses and agricultural producers. Thanks to negotiations at the event, annual deals for grain supplies are concluded, as well as agreements on investments in agriculture. We anticipate a record number of attendees and a packed business program whose results will set the tone for the entire season."

The business program for 2026 will revolve around several core topics:

• Market Analysis: An overview of current market conditions, forecasts for production and exports, and price dynamics.
• Cultivation Issues: From selection to soil fertility. A major block will cover oilseeds, discussing modern methods of crop improvement, cultivation technologies, and soil health management systems.
• Innovations in Storage & Digital Farming: Presentations of advanced solutions for maintaining harvest quality and ecosystems of digital tools for precision farming.
• Logistics, Sales, Legal Aspects: Experts will discuss challenges related to transport infrastructure, working with state information systems, and measures supporting export activities.
