  1. As of May 2023, over 30 million tonnes of grain and other foodstuffs have been exported via the Black Sea Grain Initiative. 64% of the wheat exported through the Black Sea Grain Initiative reached developing countries. Maize is exported almost equally to developed and developing countries. The UN World Food Programme (WFP – the largest humanitarian organisation in the world) is also shipping wheat from Black Sea ports. Before the war, the programme bought half of its grain stock from Ukraine. Since the start of the initiative in August 2022 over 655 000 tonnes of wheat have left Ukrainian ports to Ethiopia, Yemen, Afghanistan, Sudan, Somalia, Kenya and Djibouti.
