In 2023, the structure of cultivated areas in Ukraine will change.

This is related to the profitability of certain crops, explained Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy Taras Vysotskyi. According to him, the sown areas for oilseeds will increase, mainly rapeseed, soy, and sunflower. This reflects that the selling price of one ton of oil crops is higher, and logistics per ton is lower. That is, farmers will be able to earn more from a hectare. At the same time, wheat production will decrease, but still, it will be twice as much as domestic demand. As was the case with buckwheat this year, there will also be a slight increase in the number of crops aimed at the domestic market. Due to the war, farmers are experiencing problems with liquidity and availability of finances, which complicates and slows down fieldwork preparation. Wherever the security situation allows, farmers will sow the maximum area of crops, enough for domestic consumption and export.
