@kwalelalipimile3894 the price of sunflower oil globally has gone up 153% which has driven up the price of alternatives like vegetable oil by 44%. So earth. Ukraine produced 51% of the global Sunflower oil supply before the war.
As for the grains a lot went to the world food Program. Hollingworth. “Since it was introduced, we've transported over 480,000 metric tons of wheat out of Ukraine, supporting operations in Ethiopia, Yemen, Afghanistan, Somalia, Pakistan and beyond."
They also sell a lot to Egypt, Nigeria, Tunisia, Sir Lanka and Indonesia, or they did at least.

@vervetech9395 So russia still produces way less sunflower oil, barley, cereal, legumes, and maize 🌽
russia can't replace a major grain producer. That would require 60% growth in grain exports in 1 year, or people die. It would also require russia to expand more then wheat, or a massive increase in wheat, to replace the higher calorie foods like cereals, and barley Ukraine produced.
russia has a lot of wheat. Ukraine diversified more, and produced a very similar level of calories to russia, by farming more nutrient dense foods.
