The general crop export structure of Nibulon includes corn — 37.8% of the volumes, wheat — 35.1%, barley — 16.7%, rapeseed — 8%, sorghum — 1.8%, and soybeans — 0.3%.

In the whole 2014/15 MY the holding plans to export 4 mln tonnes of grains and oilseeds.

Also, he noted that Nibulon does not enter into forward contracts for grains and oilseeds of the harvest-2015, due to some negative experience of non-receipt funds on forward contracts.

As a reminder, in 2013/14 MY Nibulon was the company-leader in grain and oilseed exports from Ukraine with the index of over 4.5 mln tonnes.
