grain exports

Overseas cereal sales

Grain exports are shipments of cereal crops—wheat, corn, rice, barley—sent from one country to another.

The term appears frequently in discussions of international trade, food security, and agricultural policy: The war disrupted grain exports from the region.

A country's grain exports reflect both its agricultural capacity and its role in global food supply chains.
