Grain prices rose after Russia attacked a Ukrainian terminal on the Danube river, intensifying a campaign to hobble a key source of revenue for Kyiv. Wheat futures in Chicago rose more than 4.5% to $7.30 a bushel. Corn added 3%. “It looks like Russia is really doubling down. This is definitely deteriorating,” said Alexis Ellender, an analyst at Kpler with a focus on dry bulk commodities.

As Black Sea-bound vessels clustered in the waters near Istanbul, wheat prices remained elevated on Thursday, up 13 percent since Monday, when Russia pulled out of a wartime agreement that had been considered critical to stabilizing global food prices. The termination of the deal, which had permitted Ukraine to safely export its grain through the Black Sea, could have significant long-term consequences for grain supplies, said Alexis Ellender, a global analyst at Kpler, a commodities analytics firm. Despite robust grain harvests from exporters including Brazil and Australia, prices could become volatile. “By not having Ukraine there as a supplier, we’re increasing the vulnerability of the global grain market to these shocks,” Mr. Ellender said. “In the short term, supplies are good, but longer term, if we get any more supply shocks, we’re more vulnerable in terms of the global market.”Another drought in Brazil, like in 2021, or a disruption to Australia’s barley and wheat crop caused by El Niño, could cause prices to soar, he said.
