export

Russia has introduced an export quota for wheat since February 15, which may temporarily shift operational purchases to Ukrainian grain.

Since the middle of last week, demand has exceeded supply on the export market for feed corn, which has pushed prices up.

At the same time, alternative routes — Romanian ports, the Danube, or land crossings on the western border — are significantly more expensive.

Despite the increase in grain prices, farms refrain from active sales, counting on further growth in quotations.

Russian attacks on the port infrastructure of Great Odesa and the Danube have significantly worsened Ukraine’s export capabilities.

The Egyptian soybean market is currently dominated by the US, and the price gap has effectively cancelled out Ukrainian sales.

The planned cargo turnover indicators for the year were fulfilled by more than 95%.

Low exports of Ukrainian wheat were due to high military risks and disruptions in port infrastructure.

The export rate of Ukrainian agricultural products is lagging behind by 31.5% compared to the same period last year.

In the 2025/26 marketing year, the forecast for Ukrainian grain exports fell by approximately 500 thousand tons.
