It all depends on how the situation develops. For now, everything continues to work as it did,&#8221; Andrey Sizov, head of Sovecon agriculture consultancy, said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But the timing, of course, is inconvenient,&#8221; Sizov said, referring to the start of harvesting in the region in about a week.<\/p>\n<p>So far fighters from Prigozhin&#8217;s private Wagner militia appear to have taken control only of the main city in the region &#8211; Rostov-on-Don &#8211; and are advancing northwards through western Russia.<\/p>\n<p>Russia&#8217;s main grain exporting terminals on the Black Sea are further south, and this area has been unaffected by the developments so far.<\/p>\n<p>The main Black Sea port &#8211; Novorossiisk &#8211; continues to work as usual, two grain industry sources told Reuters on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Russia is forecast to export 46.5 million tonnes of wheat in the new 2023\/24 marketing season which starts on July 1, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA).<\/p>\n<p>OIL &amp; GAS<\/p>\n<p>The region of Rostov is not a major energy producer but several big oil and gas pipelines cross its territory. Russia is the world&#8217;s second largest oil exporter after Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p>One such pipeline, Kuibyshev &#8211; Tikhoretsk, can supply 0.8 million barrels per day (bpd) of oil to the port of Novorossiisk in the Krasnodar region, Russia&#8217;s biggest oil export port on the Black Sea.<\/p>\n<p>Russia&#8217;s pipeline monopoly Transneft controls many pump stations on the route, including in the Rostov region.<\/p>\n<p>Rostov is also home to a mid-sized oil refinery Novoshakhtinsk, which can process 0.1 million bpd.<\/p>\n<p>Several oil tanks were reportedly on fire in the Voronezh region on Sunday, according to Russian media, but they have no major export importance. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.investing.com\/news\/commodities-news\/factboxrussias-rostov-seized-by-rebels-is-important-commodity-hub-3112433\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Polina Devitt and Dmitry Zhdannikov LONDON (Reuters) &#8211; Following are facts about oil, gas and grains flows in Russia&#8217;s southern region of Rostov, where the capital Rostov-on-Don was seized by Russian mercenaries.
