To add context to the grain spat, Poland allowed Ukraine to transport their grain destined for Africa through their country.

That grain was ending up flooding into the Polish market rather than making it out to it's proper destination. Since Poland is part of the EU, their local grain market is subject to EU regulations and market pricing. Obviously this presents a problem where the local market is going to be seriously undercut and get hurt.
It was a reasonable concern.

They came to angreement in October that the grain shipments would no longer stop at the Polish border, and instead transit directly to Lithuania's port.
