# Russian wheat exports rise to season high

> Russia shipped about 3.3 million tonnes of wheat in October, the highest monthly volume of the season, up from 2.9 million tonnes in September. Still, July–October wheat exports were about 40% below a year earlier at roughly 10.3 million tonnes, and flows have shifted to Baltic ports such as Ust-Luga, Vysotsk and St. Petersburg.

## Why it matters

Recovering Russian shipments help ease tightness in world wheat supply, but the shift to longer Baltic routes raises costs and the year-on-year shortfall keeps export availability below last season, a mildly supportive factor for wheat prices.
