Not true:
Meanwhile, Russia’s wheat shipments hit all-time highs following a large harvest. It exported 45.5 million metric tons in the 2022-2023 trade year, with another record of 47.5 million metric tons expected in 2023-2024, according to U.S. Department of Agriculture estimates.
Also most wheat goes to China. 2/3 goes to developing countries.
Showing the data that way does not help at all and it seems fraudulent, most of the grain was going to go to China, which, yeah, is a "developing country" which basically means it's not the West, but they don't have much trouble feeding their people or high poverty levels. If you remove China from that list it's just white people territory mostly. Look at a real graph which was indicated above.
