Of these, 3 million tons of wheat and more than 4 million tons of corn. Sunflower oil and rapeseed were also exported. Altogether more than 400 ships were involved. First Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food Taras Vysotsky told about it on the air of the information marathon «United News».

«The experience of September and October showed that the stable operation of the corridor allows us to export 6−7 million tons of products per month. If such volumes are realized, it's enough for Ukrainian producers, as well as to ensure international food security,» Taras Vysotsky said.

He added that now the sunflower harvest is almost complete. We expect to harvest about 10 million tons. Corn harvesting is also going on. Because of unfavorable weather conditions, ¼ of the area is threshed. Until the end of the year they expect to harvest 22−23 million tons of corn.
