Some organizations are lobbying to introduce export quota for grain, under the guise of 'food security'. In reality, they prefer to have a lower price for grain for themselves.
" Chairman of the All-Ukrainian Union of Food and Processing and Allied Industries, Anatoliy Telnykh said that any grain export may be useful only with the availability of grain stocks in the country."
Luckily, so far the government is resisting this pressure
"KYIV, August 3 /UKRINFORM/. Any decisions of the authorities, which lead to illegal delays in export shipments of grain, must be immediately revoked, Deputy Prime Minister for Economic Affairs Serhiy Tihipko has said.
...
"There are no economic reasons for hindering exports of grain," he said noting that the recent wrongful decisions of the State Customs Service and Ukrzaliznytsia, Ukraine's railway operator, have actually halted the export of grain.
"As a result of such unlawful acts manufacturers and exporters of agricultural products are suffering losses, the business and investment climate in the country are worsening, which adversely affects the international image of the state," he stressed.
