Grain silos in Ukraine's government-controlled territory are about half full in the run-up to this year's harvest, meaning crops could be left in the ground if Russia continues its port blockade, the head of the Ukraine Grain Association said on Wednesday.
Russia's Feb. 24 invasion of Ukraine, the world's fourth largest grains exporter, halted Kyiv's Black Sea grain exports, threatening a global food crisis and triggering protests across developing countries.
