Only the extension of Ukrainian brands to international markets can bring the country absolute leadership in the export of agricultural products. Success in this matter will be ensured by a clear plan for attracting investments, which will make a real economic breakthrough possible.
In 2018, Ukraine harvested an unprecedented grain harvest - 70 million tons. This made it possible to enter the top three leaders in deliveries abroad. But today, in order to maintain its position, the country must own large grain processing enterprises and modern technologies. Every district should have enterprises equipped with the latest technology with a high level of labor efficiency and decent pay.
Recall that in the first 3 quarters of 2018, the export of domestic agricultural products decreased by 27.8%, which amounted to $ 12.9 billion. 39% of all foreign exchange earnings to Ukraine in 2018 came from the agricultural sector.
