wheat

The Russian invaders claim that since the beginning of the year they have exported 88.8 thousand tons of wheat from the Mariupol port on 12 ships.

Ukraine has fully used the quota for wheat exports to the EU, which is distributed within the annual volume.

The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) has raised its global wheat production forecast for the 2026/27 MY to 820.06 million tons.

Egypt will refuse grain exported by the Russian Federation from the occupied Ukrainian territories, and at the same time is interested in increasing grain imports from Ukraine.

If the current dynamics continue, the monthly volume of shipments may amount to only about 600 thousand tons.

Prices were supported by the increase in grain prices on a FOB basis, more active demand, restraining sales by farmers, and the weakening of the hryvnia against the dollar.

Market support was provided by speculative funds, which became more active against the background of growing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East.

Ukraine continues to supply food aid as part of humanitarian initiatives: Pakistan received 1,850 tons of wheat.

Despite the seasonal decrease in activity during the holy month of Ramadan, Egypt is interested in purchasing Ukrainian wheat.

In the 2025/26 MY, Ukraine may export 2.6% less wheat flour than in the previous season.
