Russia’s projected wheat exports were lowered to 39.5 million tonnes, while the forecast for total grain exports fell to 49.5 million tonnes, amid transport and logistics difficulties in the Black Sea region. The conflict is disrupting traditional export routes, prompting Russia to consider alternatives such as the port of Murmansk.
Reduced Russian export availability could support global wheat prices, although ample supplies from Australia, Argentina and other producers may limit the upside.
After 283 past bullish logistics events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median -0.2% over 5 sessions (46% higher; middle half -1.4% to +1.3%), and -0.1% over 20.
