Russia / Kazakhstan wheat export quota tightening.

// The hypothesis

Russia and Kazakhstan tighten wheat export quotas ahead of an uncertain harvest.

11 importer countries affected · MENA & N Africa concentration

// Modelled impact

Import-dependent MENA and North African states face a sharp rise in the landed cost of wheat; strategic-stock drawdowns accelerate.
