Meanwhile the average contract price increased from 139.9 US$/t in February to 145.6 US$/t in March, according to Ukrainian Gosscomstat. In March Ukraine delivered 42.3 thousand tonnes of barley to Turkey - 41%; 38.2 thousand tonnes to Cyprus – 37%; 5.1 thousand tonnes to Saudi Arabia – 5%. In March Ukraine also continued shipping barley to Belarus – 3.9 thousand tonnes for an average price of 148 US$/t and to Russia – 0.99 thousand tonnes for 208.2 US$/t average price.

About 61% of these shipments (476 thousand tonnes) were delivered to Saudi Arabia. In April Ukraine exported 45 thousand tonnes of barley; in May already 25 thousand tonnes.
