Black Sea attacks disrupt yellow peas, sunflower oil supplies to India
In short
Black Sea attacks have disrupted Russia’s exports of yellow peas and sunflower oil to India. Yellow pea prices have risen from ₹40 to ₹46 per kg in the last two months, and importers say recent shipments from Russia have not arrived.
That can make these foods more expensive in India. Sunflower oil shipments are also being held up, but the available reporting does not say how long the problem will last.
What the reporting says
Black Sea attacks disrupted Russia’s exports of yellow peas and sunflower oil to India, and the publisher summary says yellow pea prices rose from ₹40 to ₹46 per kg in two months. Importers reported no recent shipments from Russia, and sunflower oil flows were also hindered. The immediate consequence is tighter supply and firmer prices, while the duration of the disruption remains unknown.
Why it matters
The reported disruption in the Black Sea has affected Russian exports of yellow peas and sunflower oil to India. Yellow pea prices are said to have climbed from ₹40 to ₹46 per kg over two months, and importers reported no recent Russian shipments. The supply issue may push prices higher, especially for sunflower oil, but the reporting does not say when shipments might resume.
