On the 7th week, there is a trend for freight rates falling in Azov-Black Sea region. Thus, the cost of a shipment of 3000 tons of wheat from Azov to Marmara Sea ports is 49 dollars per ton. Demand for grain from Turkish partners remains at a low level. The amount of cargoes of other nomenclatures is also rather insignificant. It should be recalled that from tomorrow comes into effect the quota for exports of wheat, corn and barley, which will last until June 30th and this year will be 24 million tons.

The fee on barley will significantly decrease to 219.5 rubles from 827 rubles per ton, and the tax on corn will increase to 2,278.7 rubles from 1,339.8 rubles.
