Marsoft comments that global grain trade fell from a 580 million tonne peak to 572 million tonnes over the past year, per IGC figures. Ukrainian exports have held near 50 million tonnes a year under the Black Sea deal, but output is down about 40% versus pre-war and exports could fall to 33 million tonnes.
Expected Ukrainian export declines and a shrinking global grain trade tighten wheat and coarse grain supplies, supporting feed grain prices. Zero Ukrainian exports would also weigh on Panamax rates.
