The main goods sent from RUSSIA to Cuba include wheat and vegetable oils. Wheat plays a key role in the Cuban diet and is a strategically important product for the country's food security. Vegetable oils such as sunflower and soybean are also in high demand on the Cuban market, which helps strengthen the position of Russian producers.
The total volume of trade between Russia and Cuba in the agro-industrial complex increased by 13.4%. This dynamic confirms the interest of both countries in expanding trade relations and deepening cooperation, which is also associated with improving the quality of products in accordance with modern standards.
The parties pay special attention to veterinary and phytosanitary supervision. Cuba has accredited the Russian state veterinary supervision system, which opens up new opportunities for the EXPORT of poultry, pork, beef and dairy products. The introduction of electronic certification and the integration of information systems between the countries significantly simplify the process of paperwork and speed up deliveries.
Given current trends, it can be expected that cooperation between Russia and Cuba in the agro-industrial complex will continue to develop, providing both countries with not only stronger economic ties, but also improved food security. The export of agricultural products from Russia to Cuba in 2024 was an important step in strengthening bilateral relations.
