Ukraine. Сrops that will compete for space this season have been named
Since the beginning of the season, barley prices have risen more in percentage terms than wheat and corn. This has led to the fact that winter barley was sown by farmers quite actively.
This was stated by Maksym Kharchenko, grain market analyst at UkrAgroConsult, during the All-Ukrainian practical forum “Agronomy Day”.
“We expect that the planted areas under grains will increase this season. This is due to the fact that the difference between the margins of grains and oilseeds is not as big as it was before. Therefore, we expect the grain harvest to grow to 60 mln tonnes,” predicts Maksym Kharchenko.
He adds that the planted areas for grains will depend on the availability of moisture in the soil in March and April.
“We expect a change in the structure of crops, there will be a significant competition for the area between wheat and sunflower, as well as between corn and soybeans,” the analyst said.
For almost 30 years of expertise in the agri markets, UkrAgroConsult has accumulated an extensive database, which became the basis of the platform AgriSupp.
It is a multi-functional online platform with market intelligence for grains and oilseeds that enables to get access to daily operational information on the Black Sea & Danube markets, analytical reports, historical data.
