Moldova exported about 772,900 tonnes of wheat between July and October 2026, 47.8% more than a year earlier. The export value rose 60.2% to 2.96 billion lei, and the average export price of 3.83 lei/kg was the highest in four years.
Romania was the largest buyer, taking about 37% of the volume.
Stronger Moldovan export flows add modest demand for Black Sea-origin wheat in the EU market. Higher logistics costs are a large part of the price increase, so the gain passes less value to farmers and is a limited price signal for feed buyers.
After 207 past neutral trade events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.1% over 5 sessions (53% higher; middle half -1.3% to +1.6%), and +0.5% over 20.
