Ukrainian grains - Stocks are high but current logistics stop movement to consumers

Commodities are often about logistics and logistical dislocations are the reason for the large futures backwardation. The investment issue is determining when will these stocks will move, and how strong will be near-term Southern Hemisphere exports and North America harvests.
