Ukrainian Prime Minister: This year’s grain harvest will decrease 20% year on year

Ukrainian Prime Minister Denis Shmyhal said on Friday that this year’s grain harvest is likely to be 20 percent below its level last year due to the shrinkage of the cultivated area after the Russian invasion.

He said there is a shortage of fuel for farmers, but Ukraine knows how to supply them. He also said that Ukraine has a large stock of grain and vegetable oils and can provide food for its population.
