# Export of meal from Russia in 2025-2026 agricultural year may reach record 4.4 mln tonnes - IKAR

> IKAR expects Russian high-protein meal exports from sunflower, rapeseed and soybeans to reach a record 4.4 million tons in 2025-26, up from 3.9 million. Domestic demand may be insufficient, and Russia has reached full self-sufficiency in soybeans and soybean meal.

## Why it matters

Record Russian meal exports add supply to world protein markets, pressuring soybean and sunflower meal prices. Weak demand for Far Eastern exports could make that pressure worse.
