SovEcon has revised Russia's 2026 wheat harvest forecast downward to 88.3 million tons, a 0.6 million ton reduction, citing poor crop prospects in southern regions and decreased spring wheat planting. Concurrently, Russian corn exports surged by 170% in H1 2026, reaching 2.6 million tons. This indicates a mixed agricultural outlook with challenges in wheat production offset by significant growth in corn export capacity.
