Galsan Daleyev, Vice Chairman of the Government and Minister of Agriculture and Food of the Republic of Buryatia, Russia, stated that the Republic of Buryatia has started exporting rapeseed oil and rapeseed cakes to China.


Daleyev wrote on the VK social media platform, "Oil seed processing plants in the region exported 1500 tons of rapeseed oil worth 10.5 million yuan and 360 tons of rapeseed cake worth 800000 yuan to China. The company plans to export 2600 tons of rapeseed oil worth 17.7 million yuan and 2000 tons of rapeseed cake worth 4.4 million yuan in 2024. All exported goods meet China's plant quarantine requirements and no harmful organisms have been found after quarantine


He pointed out that the factory is equipped with new oilseed cleaning and drying equipment with a production capacity of 300 tons per day. In order to enable factories to use their own raw materials, this year, Modern Buryatia planted for the first time 3800 hectares of rapeseed and oil flax. We plan to increase the sowing area of oilseeds to 25000 hectares to fully meet the raw material needs of the factory's production capacity.


She said that China has a very developed culture of consuming rapeseed oil, which is rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6. Rapeseed oil is also used in beauty, medicine, as well as in the production of lubricants and biofuels.
