Export quotes for Russian grains have inched up this week thanks to increased demand and reduced offer from farmers. The volume of concluded contracts for wheat sales amounted to 2.8 million t by November 21 (against 2 million t a month earlier), while exports in November are expected to reach 4.35 million t.
Approximately 6,100 wagons with grain were found waiting for unloading at Ukrainian sea ports on November 23. Taking into account that stations accept on average 957 wagons per day, it might take up to 6 days to serve all these wagons.
About 485 wagons were reportedly heading to the Batiovo – Epereshke land border crossing point on November 27, including 170 wagons with ore, 123 wagons with vegetable oil, 66 wagons with oil cake, and 46 wagons with grain.
On average 242 wagons were transferred daily through the Chop – Čierna nad Tisou land border crossing point as of November 23 (up 33 units per day in two weeks). In particular, 203 wagons were moving on export routes (up 20 units), while 39 wagons arrived with imported goods (up 13 wagons).
