> Barley area has fallen nearly 15% over six seasons, led by cuts in Iraq, Morocco, Russia and Ukraine. EU barley exports are up 130% year on year, with Romania already shipping 65% of its 2025/26 export potential. Ukrainian barley prices have stayed firm and are the highest among domestic feed grains.
