# Ukrainian grains export since the start of season made 21.2M tons

> Ukraine exported 21.2 million tons of grains from the start of the July 2016 season through December 23, up about 6% year on year, with wheat at 10.9 million tons and corn at about 6 million tons. The ministry expects corn exports to pick up and total grain exports to exceed 41 million tons, and the 2016 grain crop is estimated at a record 64.2 million tons.

## Why it matters

A record Ukrainian harvest combined with strong export pace adds bearish supply pressure on wheat and corn, although expected corn export acceleration would absorb some of that surplus.
