Taras Vysotsky, First Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine, spoke about this on the air of the national marathon "

Thus, the wheat harvest is expected at the level of 18-20 million tons, which is five times more than the demand. Our domestic consumption for food purposes is up to 4 million tons per year, plus today we still have quality wheat in stock from last year..

Taras Vysotsky also emphasized that much more buckwheat was sown this year than in previous years.. So that we can fully satisfy domestic demand - the price will even out. A similar situation with rye, oats and other crops.

“From the point of view of internal food security, even reduced areas under crops are more than enough to provide Ukrainians with quality products. In terms of acreage and quality of crops, we do not expect a shortage. For the main groups of grains, production will be many times greater than consumption. Therefore, a significant part of the food, thanks to the unblocking of the Black Sea ports, will be able to be exported,” said the First Deputy Minister of Agrarian Policy and Food of Ukraine.

Recall, on the evening of July 22, Ukraine, Turkey and Russia, with the support of the UN Secretary General, agreed to ensure the safe export of grain from the Ukrainian ports "
