In the first half of this year, we handled 450 thousand tons of various cargoes, it is for 15 percent less than in the same period last year.
Although the first half of this year was not very successful with high results, we have already started loading the new season grain harvest, which Lithuanian farmers predict should be similar to last year (~ 6.8 million tons of grain).
We hope that the grain harvest will not be affected by extremely hot and dry weather and MIT will be able to achieve last year's handling result in the second half of the year.
Last year, the port of Klaipeda in a total handled 4.6 million tons of grain, of which 20 percent in the terminal MIT.
