Ukraine: Legumes Production and Consumption Patterns in Ukraine

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Historically, Ukraine produced a varying assortment of legumes for human consumption with the larger share of the crop utilized for forage that were sold mainly to livestock producers. Production of peas and legumes in Ukraine have significantly decreased, according to State statistics, by over 40 percent during the last decade. In 2014, Ukrainian farmers are expected to produce peas at similar levels as last year’s production, approximately at 267,000 MT. Traditionally yellow peas have been considered a low-cost, low-quality food ingredient mainly popular with lower income consumers. This notion stems from the fact that Ukrainians know yellow peas only as an animal feed ingredient. Dried peas also continue to be exported by Ukraine to a variety of locations around the world.
