# Kyiv seeks EU farm aid as exports falter

> Ukraine's Agriculture Minister Taras Vysotsky said the government expects grain export disruptions through at least summer 2027 due to Russian attacks on Black Sea ports and ships. He estimated export losses above $5 billion and extra logistics costs of $2.4 billion, and asked Brussels for €1.5 billion in farm aid, warning that about 6.3 million hectares could go unplanted.

## Why it matters

Stranded Ukrainian wheat and corn tighten the port-dependent export flow to Africa and Asia, supporting world wheat and corn prices. Lower Ukrainian planting would also weigh on future supply and keep the risk premium elevated.
