In March 2022, Ukraine saw a significant decrease in exports, exporting only 25% of the volume exported in February, with corn and sunflower oil being the main exports. The country exported 1.1 million tons of corn, 309 thousand tons of wheat, 118 thousand tons of sunflower oil, and 40 thousand tons of soybeans, totaling 5.97 million tons worth $2.7 billion. On the other hand, imports were also greatly affected by the Russian invasion, with a decrease of 67% in import volume and value compared to February. The country is currently facing challenges in exporting grain and sunflower oil due to its ports being blocked, and is seeking free navigation for foreign ships in the Black Sea. Additionally, a foreign dry cargo ship was damaged by Russian shelling in Mariupol, resulting in an injury and a fire on board.
