Unlock Double & Higher Profits for Small & Medium Farms with Professional Processing Solutions

According to the final 2025 crop harvest data released by Rosstat (Federal State Statistics Service of Russia), Russia has achieved a bumper harvest of grain and oilseed crops, with both output and commercial inventories reaching multi-year highs in early 2026. This historic raw material surplus not only strengthens Russia’s role as a key global supplier of oilseeds and downstream products, but also creates a once-in-a-cycle profit growth opportunity for small and medium-sized farms and agricultural operators.

1. Rosstat: 2025 Grain & Oilseed Output Increased Sharply

The 2025 harvest confirms a strong improvement in Russia’s grain and oilseed production, laying a solid foundation for domestic processing and export growth in the 2025/26 season.

• Grain Production Surges

Total grain and legume output reached 141.15 million tons in 2025, including 91.10 million tons of wheat, 19.70 million tons of barley, 14.80 million tons of corn, and 7.90 million tons of legumes.

• Oilseed Production Hits New Record

Total oilseed production reached 34.40 million tons in 2025, up significantly from 30.20 million tons in 2024. Sunflower seeds, soybeans, and rapeseed — the three core oilseeds — all expanded output, strengthening Russia’s processing and export capacity.

• Yield Levels Improved Significantly

Average grain yield rose from 27.9 quintals/ha in 2024 to 34.4 quintals/ha in 2025, with overall oilseed yields also improved.

2. Russian Agricultural Bank: Oilseed Stocks at Multi-Year High in Early 2026

As of February 1, 2026, commercial oilseed inventories held by Russian farms and agricultural businesses reached the highest level in recent years:

• Total oilseed inventories exceeded 20 million tons, up 32% year-on-year.
• Sunflower seed inventories: 10.70 million tons, 27% above the 4-year average
• Soybean inventories: 5.80 million tons, 65.9% above the 4-year average
• Rapeseed inventories: 3.20 million tons, 79.6% above the 4-year average

High raw material stocks extend processing cycles, raise operating rates, lower unit costs, and strengthen export potential for vegetable oils and meals.

3. For Farmers: Turn Raw Material Surplus into Double Profits

Selling raw oilseeds only captures low margins from planting. With intense competition among large processors, raw material price upside is limited. The most effective way to double or even multiply profits is to upgrade from raw material sales to deep processing.

isortym provides professional, scalable processing lines and equipment designed for small and medium-sized farms, helping operators maximize the value of sunflower seeds, soybeans, rapeseed and other oilseeds.

Key Equipment & Production Lines to Boost Profit Margins

• Raw Material Cleaning: 5XF-2000 Air-Screen Cleaner

This high-efficiency cleaner removes straw, dust, broken grains and light impurities, improving raw material purity and reducing processing loss. It is the ideal pretreatment machine for stable, high-quality processing

• Sunflower Seed Valorization: Sunflower Seeds Shelling Production Line

Equipped with the core KTF5-3000 Sunflower Seeds Dehuller, this complete line achieves high shelling efficiency and low breakage rates. It produces food-grade sunflower kernels with much higher added value than raw seeds, while by-products can be further used for oil pressing.

• Full Oilseed Processing: Oil Pressing and Refining Production Line

Compatible with sunflower seeds, soybeans and rapeseed, this integrated line realizes automatic pressing, refining and packaging. It produces food-grade vegetable oil and high-protein oil meals for domestic and export markets, helping farms double comprehensive profits and hedge raw material price risks.

4. 2025/26 Outlook: Processing & Exports to Hit Historic Highs

Supported by record output and inventories, Russia’s oilseed processing volume, vegetable oil and meal exports are expected to set new records in the 2025/26 crushing season. Russia will remain a major supplier in the global vegetable oil and protein meal market.

For small and medium-sized agricultural operators, now is the optimal time to build deep processing capacity. With stable raw material supply and strong global demand, professional and efficient processing solutions help transform planters into integrated processing enterprises, securing long-term, stable and high profits.
