# Wheat accounts for three-quarters of Russian grain exports

> 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.

## Why it matters

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.
