Ukraine: Poultry and Products Annual

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Ukraine’s poultry production in 2016 is forecast higher than official USDA figures at 1010 TMT, and is expected to increase versus 2015 following a reconstruction of old, and an efficiency increase of existing, production facilities by major vertically-integrated producers. A significant drop in disposable income in 2013-2015 resulted in a demand increase for cheap poultry offal. Exports in 2016 are expected to reach a record-high at 215 TMT, a substantial increase over current USDA official forecasts. Iraq will remain the top export destination by volume, while the EU will remain the most profitable one. In 2017 Ukraine is expected to find a way to utilize the EU’s import tariff rate quota for whole birds. Imports are also forecast slightly higher than official USDA forecasts, at 65 TMT.
