# Wheat at UAH 3,200/tonne and buyers are hard to find: Kharkiv farmer describes harvest problems

> A farm in Ukraine’s Kharkiv region says logistics problems, weak buying prices and halted processors have left it storing its wheat and part of its sunflower crop while paying monthly elevator fees. The farm reports an oversupply of grain and too few buyers; it sold some wheat for UAH 4,000 per tonne, below the UAH 6,700 per tonne it says is needed to cover production costs.

## Why it matters

Weak local demand and constrained logistics are keeping Ukrainian farm-gate grain prices under pressure and adding storage costs, even as difficulty moving exports can limit supply to international buyers. The report also describes unsold sunflower, but gives no indication of a broader market price move.
