Fastmarkets proposes to discontinue price assessments for Europe North West rapemeal, Ukraine sunoil Danube, corn handy, handy premium

The following prices are affected:
AG-RSD-0002 Rapemeal FOB ARAG RMP € per mt
AG-SSD-0012 Sunoil CPT Ukraine Danube $ per mt
AG-CRN-0064 Corn FOB Ukraine Handy $ per mt
AG-CRN-0065 Corn FOB Ukraine Handy Premium c$ per bu

The proposal to remove the Rapemeal FOB ARAG RMP € per mt assessment is driven by the relatively low export volumes of this product from the EU, along with the very limited number of price indications received from the market over an extended period.

The proposal to remove the Sunoil CPT Ukraine Danube $ per mt assessment reflects the shift in Ukrainian export flows back toward Black Sea ports. As a result, Danube shallow-water ports have experienced significantly reduced liquidity, with only limited market activity observed.

The proposal for Сorn FOB Ukraine Handy $ per mt and Corn FOB Ukraine Handy Premium c$ per bu removal is driven by the unavailability of handy-size ports in Ukraine due to the continuing conflict in the region, with no reopening expected in the near term.

These prices are part of the Fastmarkets Agriculture package.

The consultation period for these price discontinuations begins on Monday March 23 and will end on Wednesday May 22 2026, with changes taking place, subject to market feedback, on July 24.

All short-term forecasts associated with these prices produced by the Fastmarkets research team, if any, will also be discontinued.
