Ukrainian grain output in 2019-20 is forecast to rise 1% to 70.8 million tonnes, exceeding last season's record, though corn output is expected to fall by 2 million tonnes. Delivering grain to ports remains a challenge.
The forecast came from a conference in Odessa in May.
Larger Ukrainian wheat and barley crops add export supply, mildly bearish for wheat, while lower corn output is supportive for corn.
After 1,006 past bearish report events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (50% higher; middle half -1.6% to +1.8%), and +0.3% over 20.
Not enough comparable past events yet for a historical read.
After 1,040 past bullish report events, Corn moved a median +0.5% over 5 sessions (62% higher; middle half -0.9% to +2.0%), and +0.8% over 20.
Moves of each commodity's benchmark from the last close before the event. Historical reads pool past events of the same kind; they describe what happened, not what will. Not investment advice.
