NUR-SULTAN/MOSCOW. In its latest oilseed report, market analyst Oil World reckons that flaxseed production in Kazakhstan and Russia will...

The experts expect a production increase of 9% to 1.1 million metric tonnes in Kazakhstan and 17% to 750,000 metric tonnes in Russia. The world crop is currently estimated at 3.35 million metric tonnes, which is an increase of 7.7% over last year.
