Ukraine: Grain and Feed Update

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Spring wheat and rye plantings have not been able to compensate for decreased winter plantings in 2015. This translated into decreased estimates of production volumes for these crops. Barley production areas remained roughly on the level of the previous year and farmers made a move towards expansion of corn areas by around 8 percent. The surge of exports for corn and wheat resulted in the depletion of their stocks on the domestic market as well as a re-evaluation of patterns of domestic consumption for these crops by the Post.
