Sunflower seeds were, once again, Ukraine’s most profitable crop

Sunflower seeds were, once again, Ukraine’s most profitable crop, hitting 23.5% according to date from the State Statistics Service. In general, profitability was down across the board, reports Yuri Lupenko, director of the Institute of Agrarian Economics. He said: “The decline in profitability of crop production was mainly due to falling sales prices – a total of 8.8% for the year.”
