# Carnage in the wet corn market: “This is energy sabotage in the country”

> Polish wet-corn prices have fallen to about 500 zlotys per net tonne as propane used for grain drying has doubled in price in just over a month. Some major collection points have stopped accepting grain, leaving farmers—especially in northern Poland, where harvest is still underway—with few outlets for their crop.

## Why it matters

Expensive drying fuel and restricted intake reduce demand for wet corn and can force sellers to accept lower prices or delay sales. The supply bottleneck is particularly acute in regions where harvest deliveries remain heavy.
