This year's harvest in Ukraine may amount to about 77 million tons. This was announced by Dmytro Solomchuk, MP and member of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Agrarian and Land Policy, during a briefing, UNN reports .
Farmers are abandoning intensive cultivation technologies, so the yield per hectare is expected to be lower this year, I think for all crops, including grains, oilseeds, and pulses. It all depends on the weather conditions. I think it will be at the level of 75-77 million tons. In the pre-war period, our yield exceeded 100 million tons. That is, it will be approximately 30% less,
Addendum
Solomchuk reported that this year in some regions of Ukraine the area under crops will increase, but the crops will change. Ukrainian farmers are already sowing sunflower, soybeans and sugar beets.
Over 470 thousand hectares have already been sown in Ukraine .
