Determining the volatility of prices and volumes of Russian exports in 2021 - 2023. During the analysis, it was established that the emerging situation in the world markets of agricultural products and their pricing was affected by shortages from traditional producing countries such as Russia, caused by the strict Western sanction’s regime against the economy of the Russian Federation. As a result, an increase in the costs of farms in the EU for energy, feed and fertilizers was determined. The result of these processes was an inflationary growth of 7% by May 2023, as well as a decrease in the yield of major agricultural crops in the European Union. In general, a decrease in supplies to world markets of agricultural products provokes famine in the Middle East and North Africa.
