A deal to increase Ukraine’s poultry exports to the EU by 2.5 times was signed Tuesday by Stepan Kubiv, Minister of Economic Development and Trade. Within the first seven months of this year, Ukraine has used 75% of its poultry quota, estimates Ukraine’s Agrarian Club. The new quota comes after European chicken farmers complained that MHP, Ukraine’s largest poultry producer, was using a ‘loophole’ to go over the export quota to the EU. The solution was to close the ‘loophole’ and raise the export quota.
