# Rising Barley Prices in Ukraine: Supply and Demand Dynamics

> Ukrainian feed barley purchase prices rose 200-300 UAH per tonne in the last week to 11,050-11,200 UAH, or 224-229 USD, at Black Sea ports. Exports have fallen 59% year on year because of low farmer supply. International tender prices rose 4-5 USD to 267-269 USD per tonne, though Australia's larger-than-expected harvest may limit further gains.

## Why it matters

Low farm selling and export batch building support Black Sea barley values, while large Australian supply arriving in December is likely to cap international price rises.
