Ukrainian sea ports shipped 634,000 tonnes of grain in the week of Jan 12-18, up from 544,000 the previous week, with wheat up 30% and corn down 6%. Ukraine's 2018-19 grain exports reached 25.7 million tonnes by Jan 16, up 15% year on year.
Steady Ukrainian export flows add to global supply of wheat and corn, a mildly bearish factor for feed grain prices.
