# Agricultural ticker: Record volumes, but prices are subdued

> The roundup reports that severe drought and heat caused corn yield losses in some areas, with some farmers diverting grain corn to silage. It also notes falling oil prices and grain prices, continuing pressure on pig producers, and Ukrainian grain exports disrupted by intensified Russian attacks on logistics infrastructure, leaving grain accumulating in the country.

## Why it matters

Weather-related corn losses can tighten feed-grain supply and support prices, while export disruption in Ukraine can constrain Black Sea availability; lower oil prices may weigh on biofuel-linked demand and crop prices. The reported pressure on pig producers also points to weak livestock-sector demand for feed.
