ASAP Agri reports that freight rates for grain from Ukrainian ports fell in all segments in late April. Corn shipments of 30,000 t to east Italy dropped to $27-28/t, and Danube-origin corn rates fell about $4/t week on week.
Weak commodity activity, extra tonnage in the Black Sea-Mediterranean region and lower bunker prices drove the decline.
