# Ukraine’s agricultural exports fall as Odesa ports shut down

> Ukraine exported 6.5 million tonnes of major agricultural products from August to October, down 41% year on year after Odesa’s ports were effectively shut in early August. Rail and Danube routes handled most shipments, while an estimated 4.6 million tonnes—including about 4 million tonnes of grain—remained in the country.

## Why it matters

Reduced access to seaborne export routes leaves surplus grain and other farm goods in Ukraine, weighing on domestic prices and producer finances. Continued disruption is likely to constrain exportable supply reaching world markets and support prices for affected grains.
