In 2010, Romania’s wheat production stood at about 5.7 million tons.
“With exports amounting to four million tons, Romania would join the world’s main wheat exporters, but achieving this goal is not that simple,” said the minister.
According to Tabara, Russia’s decision to ban wheat exports last year helped Romania.
Recently, Egypt, the world’s main wheat importer, announced it might include Romania and Ukraine on the list of official suppliers, and a decision in this respect depends on the quality of the wheat production, as well as on the two countries’ ability to ensure long-term wheat supplies.
