Exactly what are the sanctions that impede Russia's agricultural exports? Some of US government spokesmen claimed that the sanctions on Russia do not cover agriculture. (I think it was Sullivan but I could be misremembering.) Could you link to where the sanctions are spelled out - perhaps on the US government website?

Just do a search using your preferred search engine. Here's what one minute of this did for me:

Sanctions on Russian Agricultural Bank and other financial institutions. Sanctions against export of fertilizer and seeds, etc...https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy1296#:~:text=The%20United%20States%20and%20its,to%20Russia%27s%20war%20of%20choice.

Russia is the most heavily sanctioned country on this little planet (xcept for Iran, maybe) but refuses to care.
