Russian maritime grain exports doubled year-on-year in April, with Black Sea corridor surging by 89%
- According to shipping data released by industry institutions on Monday, Russia's seaborne grain exports in April increased by 100.1% year-on-year, reaching 4.9 million tons.
- So far this season, the total seaborne grain exports have reached 46 million tons, up 7.4% year-on-year. Among them, exports from Black Sea ports, Russia's main grain export channel, increased by 89.0% year-on-year in April, to 4.1 million tons.
- Shipments from Caspian ports to the Iranian market in April were nearly 300 thousand tons, slightly lower than in March; meanwhile, exports from Baltic Sea ports, which supply Russian grain to emerging markets such as Africa and Latin America, surged by 127.8% year-on-year to 400 thousand tons, and exports from Far East ports grew by 21.5%.
- From a trading logic perspective, Russia's grain exports accelerated comprehensively in April, with Baltic routes doubling in particular, reflecting active exploration of diversified markets beyond the traditional Black Sea channels. This, to some extent, offsets transportation risks brought by geopolitical factors and helps stabilize global grain supply expectations.
