# Corn prices drop to lowest level in two years

> Ukrainian export corn prices fell to their lowest level in two years, down $24/t over the month and below $200/t for the first time since September 2024. Traders cite high logistics costs, with corn shipped via Constanța costing about $100/t, and restricted Black Sea shipping from Greater Odesa ports.

## Why it matters

Sharply lower Ukrainian corn offers and higher freight costs keep Black Sea corn less competitive, which can ease feed corn costs for buyers in importing regions while pressuring Ukrainian farm-gate prices.
