Grain

The continuation of negative export dynamics will increase pressure on the economy, which is already suffering from sanctions.

Turkish Grain Agency TMO purchased 255 thousand tons of feed barley, giving preference to suppliers from the Russian Federation and Romania.

Agroholding Nibulon plans to restore its pre-war share in total grain exports from Ukraine to 10-12%.

The largest growth is observed in the segment of “handysizes” and “costers”, while “panamaxes” remain stable.

As of September 24, Ukraine has shipped almost 6 million tons of grain and leguminous crops to foreign markets.

For the first time, supplies will exceed 3 billion tons due to the increase in wheat and corn harvests. The International Grains Council (IGC) has raised its forecast for the 2025/26 season: world grain production will be 2.412 billion tons, and total supplies will exceed 3 billion tons for the first time. This is reported…

Rail grain exports decreased, but almost the entire volume of cargo was sent to seaports.

Spot rates in the Handysize segment are increasing due to a stable grain flow and a shortage of suitable tonnage in the Black and Mediterranean Seas.

Barley prices have fallen by another 200–300 UAH/t over the past week to 10,100–10,200 UAH/t ($208–210/t) with delivery to Black Sea ports.

Since the beginning of the 2025/2026 MY, Ukraine has exported over 5 million tons of grain, compared to over 8.5 million tons a year earlier.
