USDA cut its forecast for Ukraine’s 2026/27 grain exports by 3 million tonnes to 31.5 million tonnes. The agency lowered projected wheat exports by 1 million tonnes to 11.5 million and corn exports by 2 million tonnes to 20 million, while raising expected Ukrainian wheat and other-grain production and increasing projected year-end stocks.
Lower export forecasts imply less Ukrainian wheat and corn reaching world markets, which can lend support to global prices. Higher projected stocks and larger wheat and other-grain production partly temper the supply-tightening signal.
After 769 past bullish report events, Wheat (SRW) moved a median +0.2% over 5 sessions (53% higher; middle half -1.4% to +2.0%), and +0.2% over 20.
After 1,040 past bullish report events, Corn moved a median +0.5% over 5 sessions (62% higher; middle half -0.9% to +2.0%), and +0.8% over 20.
