Sugar, soybeans, and grain products such as corn and wheat, as well as coffee, are among the top agricultural products handled at the Port of Baltimore, according to Mike Steenhoek, the executive director of the Soy Transportation Coalition.
The port handled more than 170,000 metric tons of soybean imports via container in 2020, Steenhoek wrote, adding that while Baltimore “is not a significant port region for soybeans and grain, it obviously is a significant resource for the broader economy.”
