> Ukraine exported 3.05 million tonnes of agricultural products in October, down 31.7% year over year. Barley exports fell 79.7%, corn 70%, and wheat 33.1% from a year earlier, while sunflower oil exports rose 76.4% from September to 258,700 tonnes, though they remained below the year-earlier level.

## Why it matters

Lower Ukrainian grain shipments reduce export availability and can support global grain prices, while the month-on-month rise in sunflower oil shipments adds supply to that market. Weak overall export volumes also reflect continuing constraints on Ukrainian farm sales.
