“Gain in Ukraine, but no Aussie Pain”

“Gain in Ukraine, but no Aussie Pain” headlined an analysis of Ukrainian growing corn and wheat harvests made by Australia’s Farmonline news site. The article noted that Ukraine’s corn production increased from 3 million tons in 2000 to 30 million today and that Ukraine’s wheat harvest now equals Australia’s. Although both countries are feeding Asian markets – notably India and China – Farmonline concludes that economic and population growth is making room for both countries to sell to Asia.
