This unique approach not only entertains but also educates, fostering a deeper understanding of the Russian agro-industrial sector and its global impact.
The series is produced with the support of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), aligning with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals on food and nutrition. It also resonates with the final declaration of the 17th BRICS Summit in Rio de Janeiro, emphasizing the importance of food security and the need for international coordination in improving food availability, resilience, stability, and quality.
As the series airs on TV BRICS from November 2025 to January 2026, it will be a beacon of knowledge, attracting audiences worldwide. The first film, dedicated to wheat, one of Russia's main export products, promises to be a captivating introduction to the world's breadbasket.
