# By late October, grain found its way to ports

> Russian ports exported about 2.3 million tonnes of grain in October, roughly three times less than a year earlier, according to data from the Russian Grain Union. Shipments shifted to the Baltic, which rose 8.7-fold to 1.56 million tonnes, while Azov-Black Sea exports fell from 5.4 million to 130,500 tonnes. Wheat dominated at 2 million tonnes, with Egypt the largest buyer.

## Why it matters

The collapse in Black Sea and Azov shipments tightens near-term Russian wheat supply to importers and supports wheat prices, while the rerouting to Baltic ports shows exporters adapting to disruption.
