# Barley exports slow as transitional stocks could reach 3 million tonnes

> Ukraine needs to export 300 to 350 thousand tonnes of barley a month, but only July came close this season at about 300 thousand tonnes. Barley stocks at the start of November were nearly 6 million tonnes, with 50 to 60% earmarked for domestic use, and winter barley plantings are heading toward a 2022-level low.

## Why it matters

Large unsold barley stocks and slow exports keep pressure on domestic and port prices, which are stable for now. Smaller winter plantings could tighten supply later, but near-term barley feed supply remains ample.
