Russia exported 13.8 million tonnes of grain from July through October 2026, including 10.3 million tonnes of wheat, or about 75% of the total. Barley accounted for 15% and corn 8%; the report attributes wheat’s leading share to domestic surplus and strong global food-market demand, while barley and corn exports depend more on the Caspian route.
The export mix highlights Russia’s large wheat export availability, adding to supply in global markets and potentially weighing on wheat prices. The dependence of feed-grain exports on the Caspian route makes barley and corn flows more sensitive to logistics.
