> Ukraine exported nearly 9.9 million tonnes of wheat in 2026, down 17.3%, with value down 18.6% to $2.135 billion. Domestic wheat prices fell from 11-13 thousand to 8 thousand hryvnias per tonne, and river freight rose from $25 to $75 per tonne.

## Why it matters

Higher river freight and blocked seaports increase costs and trap grain inside Ukraine, which lowers farm prices domestically and may build carryover stocks that later pressure world wheat markets.
