In Kursk, a forgotten type of speculation was revived - reselling bread. The reason for the current situation is in the low crop of the grain of this year. In general, in Kursk, bread prices are one of the lowest in the region, a loaf of the popular Seima is in the city of the city of 2 rubles, but at the Kursk railway station the price of the same variety is one and a half times higher, as well as the prices for all types of Kursk bread, which is regulated by the reseller.
The Kursk law enforcement agencies RIA Novosti reported that the daily earnings of the bread speculator reaches at least one hundred rubles, but this “business” cannot be stopped, since resale, if it is not associated with drugs or underground alcohol, is not forbidden by the law.
The situation with the crop of grain today is as follows: in Russia, the crop has been removed from more than 60% of sown areas. According to the Ministry of Agriculture and Food, the agricultural enterprises of Russia removed 25.9 million hectares of space, which is 61% of the planned (42.6 million), and 2.4 million hectares more than in the corresponding period last year.
