APK-Inform expects Ukraine and Russia to ship about 95.4 mln t of wheat, barley and corn abroad in 2019/20, up from 91.5 mln t last season. The report, presented at the Beirut Middle East Grains & Oils Congress, says Morocco and Saudi Arabia will raise barley and corn imports, with Saudi corn imports reaching 5.5 mln t.
Stronger Black Sea supply aimed at growing MENA import demand tends to cap FOB prices for wheat, barley and corn. The effect is modest because it is a forecast rather than a new shock.
