Ukraine continues to play one of the main roles on the world grain market, since the increase in production volumes and the quality parameters of exported goods give a significant advantage to Ukrainian traders. At the same time, the US and EU countries have already started to lose their positions due to more competitive prices for Ukrainian products, as well as quite attractive freight rates, Vice-President of INTL FCStone, Matt Ammerman told reporters at APK-Inform.
In this case, the processes of devaluation of the hryvnia have both negative and positive impact on the country's economy. Thus, a weak hryvnia and the ability to sell grain at attractive prices allow Ukrainian agricultural producers to expand the crop in the area under crops. In turn, Ukrainian exporters will begin to lower export prices for grain on FOB terms. As a result, Ukrainian corn becomes the most competitive and attractive on the world market, the expert believes.
