Rusagrotrans forecasts Russia's 2026 wheat crop at 89.8 million tonnes, 1.2 million below last year but still among the top five results. Barley is forecast at 19.2 million tonnes and corn at 16.9 million.
The total grain and pulse harvest is estimated at 137.4 million tonnes, 4.5 million lower.
A slightly smaller Russian crop than last year provides modest support, but ample supply and falling export prices limit the price impact.

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.
