Ukraine lifts ban on sugar and millet exports

The Cabinet of Ministers of Ukraine lifted the ban (in the form of zero quotas) on the export of sugar and millet, introduced on March 5 this year.
According to the Cabinet of Ministers Resolution 49549 of May 7, sugar and millet are now included in the list of goods whose exports are subject to licensing.
Earlier, the Vseukrainska Agrarna Rada (All-Ukrainian Agrarian Council) proposed to the government to allow the export of millet, setting a quota of 80,000 tons, as there is a surplus of this crop in the country.
VAR referred to the data of the Ministry of Agrarian Policy for February 2022, according to which in Ukraine in the 2021/2022 marketing year (MY, July-June) produced 182 thousand tons of millet, the transitional balance from 2020/2021 MY was 18 thousand tons, while the average domestic consumption of millet in the country does not exceed 80 thousand tons, and export expectations for 2021-2022 MY – 80 thousand tons.
In addition, as of April 21, 4.8 thousand hectares of millet have already been sown in Ukraine, which is much more than on the corresponding date in 2021 – 0.9 thousand hectares.
Thus, rye, oats, buckwheat, edible salt, and fertilizers (except nitrogen) remained on the list of zero export quotas.
