Exports through the "grain corridor" decreased by a third in a week

From 12 to 18 June, in the 46th week of operation of the grain corridor, the export of agricultural products through the seaports of Greater Odessa fell by 33% compared to the previous week - to 438.1 thousand tons.

Details: During this period, nine vessels were loaded, which is four units less than the previous week.

Quote: "These vessels are loaded, but they have not yet passed the necessary inspection to continue moving further to customers and are waiting for it. Next week, even worse indicators are expected because last week only five vessels passed the entrance inspection," the association added.

maize (80% of exports during this period);

wheat (7%);

sunflower press cake (7%).
