Ukraine begins preparations for the most difficult harvest in history

The Prime Minister Denis Shmygal instructed the relevant ministries and regional administrations to provide the required amount of diesel fuel for the harvest season.

Despite unprecedented challenges, the sowing campaign was successful. According to the Ministry of Agrarian Policy and Food, 75% of last year's areas were sown. . Of these, UAH 24 billion is under the program of state portfolio guarantees, "Shmygal wrote in a telegram channel.

The Prime Minister noted that preparations for the harvest are underway.

According to him, farmers are again facing external challenges.

"First, the need to harvest. The Ministry of Infrastructure is working to increase capacity on the western border of Ukraine. After all, due to Russia's blockade of Ukrainian ports, we have 23.5 million tons of grain and oilseeds," he wrote.

The second challenge, according to Shmygal, is to preserve the new harvest.

"The Ministry of Agrarian Policy is considering the possibility of organizing mobile storage, taking into account international experience. This will allow Ukraine to increase storage volumes by 10-15 million tons," he added.

The third challenge is to provide fuel for farmers.
