Tridge summary

From August 1 to September 30, 5.5 million tons of agricultural products, predominantly grain and corn, were exported from Ukraine through the ports of 'Great Odesa', with 40% of the cargo leaving from the 'Pivdenny' port. The majority of the cargo consisted of corn (44%) and wheat, with significant increases in shipments of barley, canola, oils, and meals in September. Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Turkey were the main recipients of wheat, making up 27% of total wheat shipments. The establishment of the grain corridor is expected to further boost Ukraine's grain exports, which are already projected to generate at least $20 billion due to reduced yields in Romania and Hungary, potentially leading to corn shortages in the European Union.
