In the first nine months of 2026, Ukrainian grain exports through the Romanian port of Constanta more than tripled to 1.03 million tons.

Ukraine and Romania are discussing increasing the throughput of the Sulina Canal.

The risks for Ukrainian agricultural exports are no longer limited to individual ports of Great Odesa – the entire Black Sea route is under threat.

During October, 9.8 thousand tons were delivered to the ports of Great Odesa by rail, compared to 20.8 thousand tons a month earlier.

The development of domestic processing of agricultural products will allow Ukraine to increase export revenue without a proportional increase in the volume of cargo that needs to be exported through ports and land borders.

The high cost of logistics across the Danube continues to hinder the competitiveness of Ukrainian wheat: about 30% of the cost of grain during deliveries to Egypt is accounted for by transportation.

The Ministry of Agrarian Policy has appealed to the European Union with a request to compensate for €1.1 billion in logistical losses caused by Russian shelling.

Ukraine is working on amendments to the concession agreement for the Olvia port in order to preserve the project and create conditions for its further implementation after the port resumes operations.

The ports of Izmail and Reni are currently unloading an average of 2.4 times more grain wagons than the ports of Great Odesa.

The Russian military announced that it had struck five cargo ships, three of which were in the port of Reni and two others heading to Odesa.
