A third (30.8%) of all that the EU exported in the analyzed period, namely 16.5 million tons of cereals, had as its source Romania, which surpassed France by a difference of 2.7 tons.

By type of cereals, Romania is, for the moment, the largest European exporter of wheat, with traders delivering over 3.2 million tons out of 11.1 million tons sold by the EU in total. We are also leaders in barley exports, with deliveries of over 1.3 million tons out of 2.2 million tons. However, in corn, we lost the traditional first place, in favor of Poland. The difference in quantity is small (352,914 tons vs. 348,030 tons).
