Ukraine’s grain, pulse and oilseed harvest has exceeded 62 million tonnes, including 26.3 million tonnes of wheat and 6.6 million tonnes of barley, while the corn harvest is still underway. With Odesa’s main ports largely inactive, shipments have been rerouted through Danube, Romanian and Baltic ports; the article says more than 30 million tonnes of crops worth nearly $10 billion could be cut off from foreign markets.
Blocked exports restrict supplies reaching global buyers and can support export-market grain prices, even as the large unsold volume pressures prices and producer finances inside Ukraine. The disruption and weaker farm returns could also lead to smaller future sown areas.
