# Dry Bulk Market: Ukrainian Grain Shipments to all Destinations | World Ports Organization

> Ukrainian grain shipments rose in the first half of 2024 versus the prior year, with Spain and China each taking about 20% of exports and Egypt about 10%. Panamax and Handysize vessels have taken a larger share of cargoes as they route more flexibly. Capesize Brazil to North China rates declined in the third week of July amid growing ballast tonnage in SE Africa.
